If you thought leather-wrapped chairs were the ultimate in manly man home decor, think again! The Corcel N°1 Carbon fibre bathtub looks to redefine everything we know about tough-looking interiors and most definitely re-write the book on bath fixtures. Though nothing beats the pristine white porcelain tub, I suppose it was still a little too delicate-looking for designers over at Corcel. So they went ahead and carved a tub out of the same carbon fiber that they use to make really fast cars! Talk about taking the macho theme overboard, eh?
But we don’t mean that as a criticism at all. The OTT Corcel N°1 bathtub is opulent in a badass way. Gone are the days when being a rugged man meant having to live in sparsely furnished apartments with worn down ugly recliners partnered with the most high-tech gadgets in the market. The 21st century man doesn’t need to have grime under his fingernails to prove his masculinity; he demands his edge to be shown off with a carefully buffed sheen! And though we have seen the black and chrome décor being repeated to death in bachelor pads across the globe, the gents still had to make do with porcelain bath fittings which, even in black, looked more “cat” than “lion” if you know what I mean!
Corcel, of course, are looking to remedy all that with this gorgeous N°1 that is sculpted out of carbon fiber. The 2.4m long bathtub can hold almost 340 liters of water which is more than enough to soak gents of all sizes as well as a few smaller friends of the opposite sex! The tough and versatile tub is unfortunately being manufactured in an extremely limited edition of 51 and should accordingly be just as filthily priced!
