With the tank and flush-valve mechanism smartly hidden within the wall (between the studs), each toilet maximizes bathroom floor space. Like all Caroma toilets, Invisi Series II models are dual-flush, using less water. aromausa.com

7-MOONGLOW
Toto’s Neorest II Vessel Sink was inspired by the small pool melting snow carves into a sheet of ice. Crafted from Luminist (Toto’s
proprietary hybrid epoxy resin), the basin radiates with soft illumination from an embedded LED light.
The Neorest II high-efficiency faucet was inspired by a sword’s blade of steel; super slim, it has no joints.
