Splinter Works unveils Hamaca bathtub
British design studio Splinter Works has unveiled Hamaca, a hammock-like suspended bathtub.
The flagship product in the Carbon Fibre range, Hamaca elevates the immersive comfort of soaking in a hot bath and combines it with the peaceful experience of kicking back in a hammock.
Designed for use in a wet room, it is completely suspended from the walls and does not touch the floor. Alternatively the tub can also be installed using pillars, allowing the bath to become freestanding in a bigger space.
The bath is filled using a floor standing tap and the wastewater released through the base and then completely discarded through a floor drain positioned directly beneath the tub.
Made in England, Hamaca is constructed from carbon fibre, an incredibly strong material that stays completely rigid even when fully loaded. The bathtub can be specified at any length between 2.6 and 3.0 metres.
Unlike most bathtubs, with flat bottoms and steep backs, the Hamaca’s continuous curved surface offers an unprecedented level of comfort that encourages long, luxurious bathing.
