AXOR launches Archivio by Barber Osgerby
The preview took place at Lu Bar in Via Palestro in Milan
On 21st April 2026, AXOR hosted its official launch at Lu Bar in Milan. Working in collaboration with designer duo Barber Osgerby, the new Archivio line draws from historic typologies and transitional design principles. Soft silhouettes, flowing contours, and refined accents. Available with either distinctive bloom-like cross handles or sculptural lever handles, each product invites the touch and conveys a sense of calm precision. Almost nostalgic, it retains some sort of simple and classical form, but with smoother curves. Offered in AXOR FinishPlus surfaces, AXOR Archivio empowers designers to create bold contrasts or soft tonal palettes across a wide variety of configurations, including single-hole, three-hole, wall-mounted, and freestanding designs.
