AXOR x PHOENIX: Precision Meets Personality

AXOR ShowerSelect ID

Schiltach/Milan, April 2024. AXOR ShowerSelect ID brings unprecedented precision and personalization to the shower experience. Developed in collaboration with PHOENIX, the concealed thermostatic mixer extends just 45 mm from the wall, a feat made possible by the new AXOR iBox universal 2. Within these sleek confines, a central temperature control dial offers satisfying haptic and auditory feedback while surrounding paddles utilize the latest Select technology, allowing for quick, easy switching among spray types and outlets. With three design styles to choose from—round, square or softsquare—as well as a wide range of AXOR FinishPlus surfaces and AXOR Signature custom inlay options, AXOR ShowerSelect ID is more than a marvel of technology and design. As its name suggests, it’s a unique opportunity to express one's individual identity, taste and style.

AXOR ShowerSelect ID balances universal appeal with personal preference, its minimalist design creating a striking aesthetic and enhancing ease of use. Solid metal surfaces inscribed with fine symbols let you start or stop water flow with the simple touch of a fingertip, while a central thermostatic handle gives accurate and sophisticated feedback when the temperature is changed. With a vast range of finishes and materials the appearance of the thermostat can be customized to make a distinctive design statement in a variety of interiors,” says Matthias Oesterle, PHOENIX.

Characteristics

AXOR ShowerSelect ID is characterized by ultra-precise control, universal design styles and unique customization options. Users can combine AXOR ShowerSelect ID thermostats to cover up to four outlets, with each Select paddle representing one outlet (e.g., a hand shower or spray type). For ease of operation, the paddles feature laser-engraved icons and can be activated with a simple push. The monolithic dial’s finely grooved rim provides tactile interaction, with each turn of the dial adjusting water temperature in small, precise increments. An integrated water volume control enables the user effortlessly to adjust the rate at which water flows, right up to a full stop (for easy cleaning), while the SafetyStop feature as a built-in scalding prevention mechanism allows the user to relax and enjoy. Engineered from high-quality metal, AXOR ShowerSelect ID comes in three distinct design languages—square, round and softsquare—and the full range of exclusive AXOR FinishPlus surfaces. Custom inlay options via AXOR Signature Service include black Nero Marquina marble, white Lasa Covelano Vena Oro marble, black walnut and mirrored glass. Leveraging the modular potential of the AXOR iBox universal 2, AXOR ShowerSelect ID offers a seamless complement to the entire AXOR Shower portfolio.

The Program

AXOR ShowerSelect ID consists of six product types, each available in square, round and softsquare design languages. The assortment includes a 1-function shower thermostat, a 2-function shower thermostat and a 2-function bath thermostat. In addition, a three-way diverter valve can be combined with a non-closing thermostat available either with or without an additional outlet, in order to accommodate almost any shower configuration, from a small 1-outlet shower enclosure up to a 4-function wellness shower.
