The KOHLER® Veil™ Intelligent Toilet Design Story

 

The Kohler China Studio Team launched the Veil intelligent toilet design project to address the need for space-saving toilets with ultra-responsive bidet functionality. The team was also determined to refine and soften the profile of contemporary toilet design to disrupt the current expectation.

Veil Intelligent Overview

Inspired by the architectural style of the Cape Town Stadium in Cape Town, South Africa, the design team drew on the stadium’s structural simplicity and sophistication to inform the design vernacular of the Veil intelligent toilet. As a result, Veil marries unexpected artfulness with advanced smart toilet technology for visual and experiential seamlessness. Flipping the popular domed profile on its head, the Kohler China team designed a slightly bowed seat cover with a very tight radius that captures the elegance of precision. The lift at each end is evocative of the lines of a sailing vessel and gives the design a surprising lightness.

Combining sleek design with incredible personal comfort and control sets the Veil toilet apart and redefines what an intelligent toilet is. It is the perfect marriage of technology and art.
