In the modern bathroom, the fusion of technology and design is paramount. Kohler’s smart toilets and bidet seats, exemplified by the new Leap™ smart toilet and the elegant Veil™ smart toilet, seamlessly integrate advanced functionalities without compromising on aesthetic appeal. At the forefront of innovation is the Formation 02 – a collaboration with designer Samuel Ross, reimagining the Eir™ smart toilet as a functional work of art.

Kohler’s colour leadership, rooted in a legacy dating back to 1927, continues to inspire. The Heritage Colors collection, featuring archival green hues like Fresh Green, Aspen Green, and Teal, pays homage to the brand’s historic colour palette while infusing modern-day designs with a touch of nostalgia and natural vibrance.
