Closer by Diego Grandi for Zuchetti

Previewed at the Salone del Mobile, the new ‘Closer’ shower head by Diego Grandi for Zuchetti looks like an articulated wall lamp.

“Movement was an essential concept for me right from the start, to the extent that I always imagined this piece set in the centre of the room, so that the whole environment becomes ‘the water’s space’, not just a certain part of it,” explains Grandi.

Designed to be adjusted and extended simply and intuitively, the Closer shower head has three joints and a cylindrical counterweight that ensures that it is stable in any position and at any height.

“My aim”, says Grandi, “was to create an item with a broad range of uses and with almost total flexibility. The concept is simple; the name comes both from your movement towards the water, and from the water that follows you”.

Closer is currently available in a black finish and in chrome with a colored version under consideration.
