IONIKA SUPREME
Countertop 1 hole washbasin mixer
Ionika Supreme is a 1 hole countertop washbasin mixer.
Ionika Supreme is the dark suit version of the collection, the obscured nature of a bespoke piece of décor with an extraordinary visual impact.
The IONIKA collection is a skilful intuition of Alessandra Bertini, mind and active part of the project, who with natural mastery has been able to give shape to a concept never before experimented by the brand. A new decorative line and an important aesthetic research thus define the volumes of the series, strongly inspired by Greek-classical architecture, but above all by one of the elements that sanctioned the artistic image of this era: the Ionic column. The reference to the classical order is evident in the fluted details of the collection, characterised in each of its components by linear mouldings that become the hallmark of each Ionika article. Evoking the capitals of Greek architecture, Newform conceives the single-lever mixers of the new collection as a remake of an original trilithic system: the typical composition of two vertical and one horizontal element corresponds exactly to the body, handle and spout of the series. Proportions, profiles and details of an aesthetic nature are thus identified with time and material: Ionika tells a piece of history through contemporary design, retrieving art and beauty from the past and delivering them to the present. Art thus becomes the inspiring muse of the Ionika by Newform project and enhances the expressive dimension of every single component, from the mixer body, to the spout, to the details that experiment with matter to give life to an unexpected extreme luxury version of the series.
The strong decorative character of the series is complemented by colour, which translates into a range of finishes that enhance the sense of three-dimensionality of the Ionika design and which, when combined with white or black marble, reveal an unexpected range of compositional possibilities. From the evergreen proposals in Chrome, Matt Black and Matt White, the collection extends its chromatic versatility to Brushed Bronze and PVD finishes in Polished Gold, Brushed Gun Metal, Brushed Copper Bronze, Brushed Pale Gold and Brushed Stainless Steel. With Ionika, Newform responds to stylistic and design requirements that start from the assumption of an environment with a classic taste, but strongly decorative and ambitious in terms of design and search for detail.
In designing the collection, drawing inspiration from the past is merely a matter of aesthetics, because the value of innovation and functional progress belong to an increasingly dynamic and evolving present. Following this logic, the series brings an important plus, strongly sought after by the company to complement the background of measures already taken in terms of product sustainability. With Ionika, the Energy Saving system makes its debut in the Newform bathroom catalogue. The installation of a progressive cartridge in the series' basin mixers ensures greater energy savings. Turning the handle clockwise activates the flow of cold water, while only continuing the rotation activates the mixing process with hot water, which, at the end of the movement, will represent 100 per cent of the water delivered. To end the flow it will be necessary to turn the handle back to the starting position. The Energy Saving system allows greater control over water and energy waste, as the progressive movement of the handle minimises unintentional or unnecessary activation of the hot water and, therefore, the boiler. Ionika is a Save Water collection, with flow limiters that guarantee water savings of up to 50% from the daily use of the mixers.
