The Livingetc Beyond the Bath Design Challenge and Awards presented by Hindware Italian Collection is a one-of-a-kind digital design challenge to create the most stylish bathroom.
Without any limitations or guidelines, participants across the country were asked to design their dream bathroom using the Hindware Italian Collection and the brand’s luxury line QUEO. Out of numerous entries, 25 architects and designers were shortlisted as finalists and hosted by Livingetc India and Hindware Limited at the grand finale awards ceremony in Mumbai. The variety of bathroom concepts submitted was inspiring as each designer took their own approach to designing their dream space. From thinking inside out and creating new environments to introducing natural materials and organic shapes, the creativity and originality on display was commendable.
