THEA
Round LED ceiling mounted stainless steel overhead shower
THEA is the new showerhead from the WELLNESS collection by FIMA Carlo Frattini, born from the creative vision of Studio Giò Forma and designed for an international market attentive to innovation and an idea of exclusive luxury.
The concept of THEA takes shape from a precise consideration: transforming the showerhead from a purely functional element into an iconic presence capable of defining the space and asserting its identity. The project develops a rigorous aesthetic language that expresses an evolved conception of wellness, in which precious materials, formal research, and sophisticated design solutions contribute to building a high-level experience.
THEA finds its design focal point in a 36 cm diameter disk with a stone-effect finish, secured via a magnetic system that allows for easy removal in case of extraordinary maintenance. Its natural veins camouflage the integrated flush-mounted delivery nozzles, preserving the formal purity of the design. When not in use, the showerhead appears as a suspended material surface, perfectly integrated into the shower's architecture.
The project emphasizes the use of latest-generation technical ceramic slabs, with minimum thickness and reinforced with fiberglass, which faithfully reproduce the aesthetics of natural stones while offering superior performance and a more sustainable approach. This innovative material is distinguished by extremely low water absorption and high resistance to chemical agents, combining lightness, durability, and ease of cleaning to guarantee practicality over time.
The structure is made of stainless steel, used for the supporting arm and the showerhead body, available with a polished or brushed finish and declined in the galvanic and PVD variants of FIMA's WELLNESS collections. The color range spans from warm and precious tones such as Gold, Champagne, Amber Bronze, and Mocha, to the depth of Black Chrome and the matte Black and White versions. The micro-perforated ceramic disk is also offered in different finishes, from travertine to more intense shades like Noir Desir, allowing for bolder aesthetic interpretations.
A further distinctive element of THEA is the thin LED light ring that runs along the profile of the showerhead: a discreet yet spectacular mark that amplifies the perception of the material and contributes to creating an enveloping atmosphere. The ability to turn it on independently of the water flow allows the light to be used before or after the shower, transforming the space into an emotional environment.
THEA's design versatility is expressed in different configurations, with ceiling or wall installation. The arm, with a 5 cm diameter, is designed to guarantee structural and aesthetic balance, integrating both the water and electrical connections within it. The system is compatible with all shower solutions and built-in bodies of the FIMA collections.
In THEA, material dialogues with light, technology integrates into form, and water becomes an experience. A project that redefines the concept of luxury, transforming the shower into an immersive and deeply emotional ritual.
THEA is an iconic presence, the centerpiece of the shower space.
