The Litze™ Bath Collection by Brizo® Evokes Modern Design with Bauhaus Sensibility

INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 24, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- As the influential 1920s Bauhaus movement strove to rejuvenate design for everyday life, the new Litze^™ (pronounced LEETS-zuh) Bath Collection by Brizo^® was born from the desire to reunite creativity and manufacturing. The collection melds innovative engineering and artistry to strike a balance that is equally at home in clean, contemporary environments or raw, industrial spaces.

Thoughtful details such as three distinctive handle options, a simplistically beautiful bent tube spout, a jointed wall mount shower arm and elegant teak wood accents exemplify the stunning craftsmanship. The textural knurling detail throughout the suite inspired the collection's name, which means "braid" in German. "Litze" is also a subtle nod to the town of Worlitz, Germany, located near the birthplace of the Bauhaus movement.

"The starting point for this collection was simply to create a clean, modern design, but Litze turned out to be much more than that," said Jordan Bahler, Brizo industrial designer. "Equal parts artisanal and raw in style, the collection delivers an unexpected edge by highlighting the elegant side of those concepts, making them feel new, modern and energized."

Every design detail is deliberate and ensures ease of use, from the intersection of geometry found in the lever handles to the slide bar handshower model available with or without a machined brass wheel that spins when positioning the hand shower. Teak wood accents, available on select models, create a stunning combination of manmade and natural materials. Like iconic Bauhaus designs, the Litze collection takes inspiration from fine arts and architecture.

The full suite of products includes:

• Widespread lavatory available in two spout heights
