10/06/2024 [Updated on 30/12/2025]
Modern bathrooms have become true havens of wellness and relaxation, harmoniously blending design and functionality.
And at Krion, we fully understand how important it is to create bathrooms that go beyond aesthetically pleasing; they need to be highly functional and hard-wearing, too. Our innovative and sustainable solutions, Krion® and Krion Shell®, are the ideal materials to transform any bathroom into a contemporary oasis.
Going beyond maximum resistance and hygiene, the Krion Bath range brings the brand's signature innovation to the bathrooms of today. Krion® and Krion Shell® have been designed to offer unmatched technical properties, ranging from almost zero porosity (ideal for spaces like bathrooms where water is in almost constant use); to its bacteriostatic powers, also vital in this setting.
Thanks to these specifications, both bathroom materials have fostered top-of-mind awareness among the most renowned architects and interior designers for some time. But our solutions stand out for more than being ideally suited to the bathroom. They have a remarkable capacity to turn anywhere into a unique, elegant and modern space.

Design your modern bathroom with state-of-the-art materials now
When you're designing a modern bathroom, you need to think about much more than just the aesthetics. The functionality, durability and sustainability of the materials you use all come into play.
Excelling in all these areas, Krion products are perfectly tailored to the needs of architects, interior designers, hoteliers and people like you who dream of a unique bathroom.
When planning a modern bathroom, selecting resistant, easy-to-maintain materials in contemporary designs is crucial. Mineral shower trays, worktops and washbasins made with Krion® and Krion Shell® stand out for their durability, ease of cleaning and non-slip properties. Not to mention the endless ways they can be customised to create truly exclusive spaces.
Krion Shell® is an engineered mineral composite featuring a solid and homogeneous outer layer of minerals (ATH) and resin, and a body composed mainly of minerals (dolomites) and eco-resin. Meanwhile, Krion® is a full-body solid surface boasting a high mineral content and excellent impact resistance.
Both materials can be used to create seamless, continuous surfaces with imperceptible joints, making them incredibly easy to clean and maintain.
They can also be customised and moulded into shape, ideal for designing bespoke bathrooms perfectly adapted to the unique needs and tastes of every customer.
How can you achieve a striking modern bathroom?
Several key elements come into play when designing your modern bathroom that will all help you to achieve a functional and aesthetic space, including:
Ventilation and lighting
A well-ventilated, well-lit bathroom is of course healthier and safer, and also creates a sense of comfort and spaciousness.
Natural light is the enduring ideal, but in its absence we recommend installing low-energy LED lighting for a bright and beautiful feel.
Adequate ventilation keeps your bathroom fresh and clean, and is key to preventing the build-up of damp and mould.
Recessed washbasins
Incorporated into the worktop, eco-friendly Krion Shell® recessed washbasins are an excellent choice for modern bathrooms with a sustainable soul.
Offering a sleek, contemporary design, they are also easy to clean and maintain.
And as we mentioned above, the seamless, smooth surface of the materials prevents any build-up of dirt and grime, making everyday hygiene a breeze.
Quality materials
If you want a bathroom that stands the test of time, high quality materials are vital. Krion Shell® and Krion® offer standout resistance, easy maintenance and bacteriostatic powers. And because they can be personalised, you can create bespoke designs that fit your space to perfection.
We know how important sustainability really is. That's why our products contain recycled materials, and are specially designed to reduce their impact on the environment.

Our top choices for minimalist bathrooms
Minimalism is not just a trend; it is a design philosophy that seeks balance between form and function, beauty and simplicity. Minimalist bathrooms created with Krion® LUX and Krion Shell® become spaces that inspire calm, visual cleanliness, and timeless sophistication. That's why we're showing you some of our most outstanding projects where this trend comes to life thanks to our materials, which allow for pure lines, continuous finishes, and a clean aesthetic that enhances the architecture of the space.
1.Mirma House, a window to the sea
This Dénia home represents the perfect union of minimalist architecture and curved lines. The bathroom stands out in particular: a clean and expansive space where the large windows allow for unrivalled views.
This is a home designed for sea lovers. You could spend hours looking out to sea as you take a relaxing bubble bath in the comfortable and versatile Krion® Slim bath.

2.Vivienda Mikado, bathrooms au naturel
If you think you've seen it all when it comes to the total white trend, think again. Take a look at this bathroom in 'Mikado', a residence in Valencia. The total white aesthetic combines to perfection with this modern and unique environment. The modern, pure white look is interrupted only by the most Zen of accents: the washbasin unit and bathroom lighting.

3. Enjoy the dolce vita in Rome
The classic and state-of-the-art go hand-in-hand in the bathrooms of this Rome property where there's no lack of space and openness. This sense of grandeur is more than reminiscent of the Roman thermal baths of old, but here, the Krion® Basic solid surface washbasins give the scheme a decidedly modern edge.
The pure white elements enhance the space, which opens up to the outdoors with a vast picture window close to the whirlpool bath. These bathrooms are a true homage to the spa.

4. Relax in the Mediterranean
If you thought that was it terms of baths with a view, you were wrong. In this minimalist home, the Modul bath again evokes the light and tranquillity of the Mediterranean.
The minimalist bath blends to perfection with the natural-look flooring, walls and washbasins, reminding us of the world waiting to be discovered beyond the confines of the bathroom. Rather than the purest white of classic minimalism, the tone is limited to accents here - the washbasin countertop and bath, for example.

5. Harmony in Carlet
This bathroom in Carlet exudes pure harmony and balance. Pure and balanced lines and forms reign supreme, with elements such as the Krion® Kole wall-mounted washbasin lending a sense of visual clarity to the space.
The sense of continuity between the wood-toned wall and floor tiles is interrupted solely by the bathroom furnishings, in a dazzling white. A harmonious design centred on symmetry and geometric forms.
