Veil toilet offers bidet functionality in a sleek, modern design
A recent Houzz study reveals that the leading two elements of bathroom design among homeowners are style and ease of cleaning, and that bidets are increasingly considered for bathroom remodels. Kohler’s new Veil Intelligent toilet boasts this trifecta, sophisticated style, ease of cleanliness and bidet technology, in a sleek, contemporary fashion. With its clean, refined design lines and concealed tank, the Veil toilet offers smart toilet functionality with minimal aesthetic interruption to the overall bathroom space.
Veil includes features such as automatic opening/closing lid and flushing to minimize touch points, easing user’s concerns about spreading germs in the bathroom. The new Veil Intelligent toilet uses cutting-edge technology to provide comfort features including integrated bidet functionality in a seamless manner, packaging these personal hygiene features in a design that is both unassuming and approachable.
“From an early age, we are taught a toilet routine, however, as standards for personal cleanliness increase, American consumers are learning there is a better way to achieve personal hygiene,” says Shane Allis, marketing director of Kohler sanitary products. “Bidet functionality has been a growing trend as American consumers learn it provides a more thorough and hygienic level of cleanliness compared to the traditional toilet routine but consumers are not willing to sacrifice design. The Veil Intelligent toilet offers the best of both worlds.”
A stainless steel bidet wand offers warm water cleaning with adjustable spray shape, position, water pressure, temperature, pulsate, and oscillate functions for anterior and posterior positions. A soothing warm-air drying system with adjustable temperature settings provides additional comfort. The self-cleaning function uses UV light and electrolyzed water systems to sanitize the bidet wand surfaces.
Incorporating Kohler’s popular French Curve toilet seat design, this toilet provides an ergonomically designed experience to minimize pressure points and enhance comfort.
Veil’s touch screen remote control offers complete customization from its full menu of cleansing and comfort features including adjustable water temperature, bidet wand position and function type, heated seat, dryer, deodorizer, night light and flush control.
The Veil toilet by Kohler is equipped with an exceptional flushing system featuring a rimless bowl for a cleaner flush, dual jets to create a strong siphon for efficient flushing and powerful water flow to eliminate bowl residue. Offered with both 1.28-gallon and 0.8-gallon eco flush options, the Veil Intelligent toilet saves as much as 6,000 gallons of water annually over a standard 1.6-gallon toilet.

Beckon, the new touchless kitchen faucet from KOHLER, is the marriage of modern technology and classic design, incorporating Response touchless technology with a classically elegant form. The hands-free functionality enables users to prep, clean, and cook without concern of cross contamination.
Beckon contains all the latest faucet technology in a design that has a graceful, traditional appeal. A detailed sprayhead and base carry the classic lines expected in traditional and eclectic designs, and the Beckon faucet is designed to be hassle-free: it uses AC power, so there are no batteries to replace, and an LED light on the handle indicates when the faucet is operational. The sprayhead pulls down using ProMotion technology, which features a braided hose with swivel ball joint, providing smooth operation with minimal effort. When finished, the sprayhead neatly and securely locks back into place using Kohler’s DockNetik magnetic docking system located within the spout. The proprietary Response Technology enables users to turn the faucet on and off with a wave of their hand, and the activation window is strictly defined to prevent any false activation of the faucet.
Additional functionalities include a dual-function sprayhead to effortlessly switch between stream spray and the Kohler-patented Sweep spray, which employs precisely angled nozzles to form a wide, powerful blade of water that efficiently sweeps dishes and the sink clean. A high arching spout, which makes it easy to clean and fill large pots. A single lever handle that is intuitive to use and makes for simple water temperature adjustment, and the faucet’s unique temperature memory enables it to be turned on and off at the same temperature set during the previous usage.
The MasterClean sprayface has an easy-to-clean surface that resists mineral built-up, and the ceramic disk valves exceed industry longevity standards to ensure a consistent, dependable lifetime performance. It has a maximum flow rate of 1.8 gpm (gallons per minute) at 60 psi and meets CalGreen requirements for kitchen faucets.
The Beckon faucet has a premium metal construction, and the KOHLER finishes options of Polished Chrome, Vibrant Polished Nickel, Vibrant Stainless, and Oil-Rubbed Bronze are all resistant to corrosion and tarnishing.

TOTO, the largest plumbing manufacturer in the world with $5.1 billion in annual sales, announced today that its latest technologically-advanced plumbing products are featured this season on The Kardashians mega-hit reality series. A storyline follows TV personalities and fashion trendsetters Kylie and Kris Jenner as they select TOTO products to make an elegant contemporary design statement in their master bath renovations and the glam bath Kylie designed for her new multimillion dollar home.
In The Kardashians’ episode that premiered Sunday, January 24th at 9PM E/P, Kylie and Kris visit TOTO’s West Hollywood Gallery to shop for products. President of Operations for the Americas Bill Strang met with the fashion icons to discuss the company’s forward-looking approach to product design.
“We were pleased to introduce Kylie and Kris Jenner to TOTO’s latest innovations,” said Strang. “We design TOTO products to make people’s lives cleaner, healthier, less complicated and more beautiful by seamlessly blending cutting-edge technology with elegant, high design.”
As Strang escorted Kris and Kylie around the TOTO Gallery, he offered insights into which TOTO products would best suit their individual bath spaces. The two style mavens immediately gravitated toward the elegant design of the technologically-advanced NEOREST 750H with Actilight, which now graces both their master bathrooms.
During the TOTO Gallery shopping trip, Kylie also selected the company’s high-luxe products for her glam bath, including the high-style Luminist Round Vessel Lavatories with LED Lighting, elegant Helix Wall-Mount EcoPower Sensor Faucets, chic Eco Soirée High-Efficiency 1.28 gpf Toilet, high-tech Washlet S350e personal cleansing system with eWater+, classically modern Aero Rainshower System, stylish Gyrostream Body Sprays, and elegant NEOREST Accessories.

Sophisticated bevel detail defines the fresh look
Gessi North America has introduced the Fascino console lav with a striking bevel detail.
By reinterpreting classic harmony in its signature minimalist style, Gessi, Italy’s largest producer of high quality original-design bath fittings, has ignited a “Modern-Traditional” dynamic in Fascino that goes well beyond a retro look.
Perfectly simple, rather than fussy or overdone, Gessi’s Fascino console lav sounds both classy and contemporary notes in perfect harmony, living up to its Italian name, charm.
“A balanced blend of good taste and distinctive design, Fascino can be set gracefully in traditional or contemporary interiors,” says Larry Allen, CEO/Managing Director, Gessi North America, Anaheim, CA.
The Fascino lav comes in two sizes, approximately 36″ and approximately 44″ and may be drilled on-site for a single-hole or three-hole faucet. The lavs are made of white matte Cristalplant, a patented technologically advanced Italian solid surface material that is practically fireproof (class 1), strongly UV-resistant, non-porous and 100% recyclable. Its velvety natural stone-like finish is pleasant to the touch.
Companion Fascino faucets, tubs, showers and accessories are available for a total look in the spa bathroom.
All products are manufactured in Gessi Park, Italy, for utmost attention to the highest quality standards.
Gessi bath collections are available at select independent decorative hardware and plumbing showrooms throughout the U.S. and Canada.
