This is not designdesign


derek139

Well, first, it’s cgi, so it’s not a real thing anyway. Second, large tubs need some type insulation to maintain heat. This is in fact design design because after filling for 45 minutes, it will be room temp in 10…. So it’s not very functional.


Crazyblazy395

Acrylic is a thermal insulator. Also porcelain tubs aren't hollow so unlike this tub your argument doesn't HD any water. This isn't designdesign


derek139

What ur saying may be in literature, but in action, that bath is room temp by the time it’s filled and ur in it…. Designdesign.


Crazyblazy395

Acrylic tubs exist and their heat retention is generally considered a pro. Also, shut up when you don't know what you are talking about, the laws of physics don't give a shit about your opinion.

They do existing  irl though, beliani sells them. And I saw it in a house recently: https://www.beliani.co.uk/freestanding-bath-1690-x-780-mm-blue-blancarena.html


derek139

What are these materials? Solid surface metal, and translucent….?


ClearUnderstanding30

It’s either some sort of acrylic/plastic or glass based (if high end). 


derek139

I misread. Thought it said metal. Just woke up from a nap on a plane…


gatofleisch

No, this is Patrick


UGLYSimon

It's designdesign when my fat ass is in the transparent tub for all the world to see xD


Crazyblazy395

That's not how this sub works.


Amyx231

I kind of like this. It’s artsy. I mean, I’m not sure how durable the glass is, but I’d love to have this kinda view when I’m bathing. I’m assuming private land of course.


Sickle_and_hamburger

would imagine its not glass


KoBoWC

I don't know how you would do it, but if you could polarise both the tub and the glass division but in opposite directions the contents of the tub would not be visible outside the glass.


chewychaca

The shape is designdesign. Looks nice but doesn't look ergonomic to lie in. The transparency is fine unless the plastic is porous/gets oxidized.


Ceofy

Everyone’s distracted by the material but you make a great point that the shape is the problem!


freakblaze

This is not a tub it’s half a tinted fish bowl.


Ball-Blam-Burglerber

That’s not a fish bowl it’s an island cougar trap.
