GROHE Unveils Breakthrough Collaboration and Major Product Innovations for HIX 2025

GROHE, the leading global brand for complete bathroom solutions, announces a significant period of design and innovation activity with the unveiling of the GROHE SPA x Buster + Punch collaboration at the World Architecture Festival (WAF) in Miami, alongside confirmation of its prominent return to HIX 2025 in London.

Together, these launches reflect GROHE’s ongoing commitment to redefining expressive, wellness-led interiors for both residential and hospitality spaces.

GROHE is a leading global brand for complete bathroom solutions and kitchen fittings. Since 2014 GROHE has been part of the strong brand portfolio of LIXIL, a manufacturer of pioneering water and housing products. In order to offer “Pure Freude an Wasser”, every product is based on the brand values of quality, technology, design and sustainability.

The brand offers life-enhancing product solutions as well as services with its dedicated portfolios GROHE QuickFix, GROHE Professional and its premium sub-brand GROHE SPA. All cater to the specific needs of GROHE’s professional business partners and their differentiated target groups.

GROHE SPA x Buster + Punch: A Collaboration Where Water, Light and Touch Intertwine

A fully integrated bathroom concept unveiled at WAF Miami. At the 2025 World Architecture Festival, GROHE SPA and Buster + Punch debuted a meticulously curated bathroom concept in which solid metal hardware, lighting, and water solutions merge into one seamless design language. Conceived as a “creative’s toolkit”, the collaboration enables architects and designers to craft interiors with absolute coherence in fit, feel, and finish.

Four Unified Finishes, One Design Language

The collection includes four of GROHE SPA’s signature finishes — Brushed Warm Sunset, Brushed Cool Sunrise, Phantom Black, and Supersteel — applied across Buster + Punch’s iconic cabinet hardware, door hardware, lighting, sockets, and switches. Shared design cues, including both brands’ distinctive knurling, heighten tactility and reinforce harmony across every surface.

Design Leaders Speak on the Power of Cohesion

Massimo Buster Minale, Founder and Creative Director, Buster + Punch. explains:

“To elevate your look in spas, wet rooms, and bathrooms, it’s essential to combine detailing, brassware, and lighting in one seamless finish. This is one of the key reasons why this collaboration came about and is so powerful – the collection has everything a designer or architect needs to level up these spaces effortlessly.”

Paul Flowers, Leader, LIXIL Global Design & Brand Identity, Chief Design and Brand Officer & Executive Vice President, LIXIL adds: 

“This collaboration is born from a shared obsession with colour, material, and finish – every surface, every detail considered to elevate bathrooms and redefine expressive interiors. Recognising that designers and architects often struggle to create perfectly coordinated interiors across different brands, we combined Buster + Punch’s bold craftsmanship with GROHE SPA’s expertise in water and experiential luxury to offer a fully integrated suite of products where every element aligns, with nothing left to compromise. The result is a space that invites emotional interaction and turns bathrooms into immersive experiences.” 

WAF: A Global Stage for GROHE Innovation

The concept was unveiled at the Miami Convention Centre, November 12–14, 2025, reinforcing GROHE’s long standing role as a founding sponsor of WAF. Paul Flowers concludes: 

“WAF continues to be an invaluable platform for GROHE. It is a place where we not only present our brand, but also engage in conversations that shape the future of how we live. Many of our solutions have been informed by the insights and inspiration we’ve gathered at this festival over the years.”
