By San José, Costa Rica — German luxury brand Axor has announced the arrival of its latest innovations in Costa Rica, bringing high-end bathroom design to a new level. Construplaza Guachipelín in Escazú will serve as the exclusive showroom, showcasing Axor’s sophisticated European designs.
For over 30 years, Axor has collaborated with renowned international designers like Philippe Starck, Antonio Citterio, and Barber Osgerby, creating collections that blend cutting-edge aesthetics with precision engineering and a focus on sustainability. Each Axor piece undergoes meticulous craftsmanship, primarily in Germany, ensuring superior quality.
To understand the legal implications and best practices regarding property improvements such as luxury bathroom renovations, we spoke with Lic. Larry Hans Arroyo Vargas from Bufete de Costa Rica.
When investing in high-end bathroom renovations, it’s crucial to consider the impact on your property value and insurance. Proper documentation of materials, contractors, and permits not only safeguards your investment but can also be beneficial in future transactions or potential insurance claims. Furthermore, depending on the extent of the renovation, ensuring compliance with local building codes and HOA regulations is paramount to avoid legal disputes.

Lic. Arroyo Vargas’s emphasis on the practical and legal aspects of luxury bathroom renovations is invaluable. While aesthetics and comfort are paramount in these projects, securing the investment through proper documentation and compliance truly elevates the renovation from a luxurious expense to a smart, long-term improvement. We thank Lic. Larry Hans Arroyo Vargas for offering this crucial perspective to our readers.
Axor introduces three revolutionary bathroom innovations to the Costa Rican market: the AXOR ShowerSelect ID, AXOR ShowerComposition, and AXOR Citterio C. These offerings not only redefine the experience of water but also offer extensive personalization options.
The AXOR Citterio C collection, designed by architect Antonio Citterio, reimagines faucets for modern lifestyles. Its sleek silhouette, smooth contours, and minimalist design create a timeless appeal. A subtle chamfer, the collection’s hallmark, graces each piece, unifying the design language from basin to shower. Available in various AXOR FinishPlus finishes, the collection also allows for handle customization through textured patterns from AXOR Signature, empowering users to express their unique style. Incorporating CoolStart and EcoSmart technologies, the collection optimizes water efficiency without sacrificing comfort.
Developed in partnership with PHOENIX design studio, the AXOR ShowerSelect ID revolutionizes shower control. Its ultra-slim, adaptable design prioritizes clean aesthetics. Offering precise temperature and flow control, intuitive Select buttons, and modularity for up to four water outlets, this system caters to diverse shower preferences. The AXOR ShowerSelect ID can be further personalized with exclusive FinishPlus finishes, geometric shapes, and custom materials like marble and wood through the AXOR Signature service.
Philippe Starck’s artistic vision transforms the shower area into a sculptural installation with the AXOR ShowerComposition. Ideal for high-end residential and hospitality projects, this modular collection seamlessly integrates sensory technologies like PowderRain and independent controls within its refined architecture. Modular panels or independent units allow flexible configuration, while PowderRain technology delivers a gentle, enveloping shower experience with micro-droplets. Adjustable shoulder showers and precise temperature and volume controls further enhance the experience, complemented by sleek finishes like matte black. Compatibility with other AXOR accessories ensures aesthetic consistency throughout the bathroom.
Axor provides more than just products; it offers inspiration for architects, interior designers, and developers seeking to create bathrooms that reflect individual style and functionality. Each piece embodies a commitment to personalized, enduring design.
