iF Design Award 2021
The iF Design Award is one of the oldest independent design institutions in the world. It is an internationally renowned design award held since 1953 at the iF International Forum Design GmbH in Hanover, Germany.
Products are judged based on their aesthetics, functionality, and innovativeness before they are awarded. Each product has a 30% chance of winning the award with a 2% chance of winning the GOLD Award which is only given to those recognized as especially excellent among the contenders. TOTO was awarded the GOLD Award in 2017 with their Washbasin TL.
“This TOTO washbasin is highly sensual, elegant and finely elaborated. The finish is superb and the proportions are simply perfect. Reduced to the essentials, the quality and execution of the design elevate the sink to a design object.”
GOLD Statement
In 2021, with 9509 submissions from 52 countries, there were more contenders than ever before. Six of TOTO’s submission won the prestigious award
This Toto urinal improves a room’s designability and was created with functionality and easy maintenance in mind. The urinal is equipped with disinfecting, stain preventing, and cleaning features. It is available in two sizes. The tall urinal is suitable for all users, whereas the short one makes the room appear larger. The top surfaces of the two models can be aligned, creating a uniform, polished look. The triangle shape of the bowl and a closer lip edge make it more comfortable to use, while the bowl’s angled surface reduces splashing and improves hygiene.
This touchless faucet features TOTO’s EWATER+ for safety and cleanliness, both vital for use in public restrooms. This product can help limit the spread of diseases such as COVID-19. Its minimalistic design removes all unnecessary elements to match the many styles of public restrooms. Sensors, LEDs, and sanitizing spray devices have been uniquely miniaturized and stored in the spout tip to keep the shape of this faucet as simple and uncluttered as possible.
