Theme of the Prize
The bathroom is growing more and more from a bathing unit into a center for relaxation of body and soul. At the same time we see growing concerns regarding the world's drinking water supply.
Theme of the 2001 Award is exploring the possibilities of this new bathroom character for future bathroom products, taking the value of water into account. In short: 'Cherish the magic of water'.
