How much design is allowed in the bathroom? For many, the room is a functional place – but it’s worth paying conscious attention to aesthetic details here.

The “Touch” bathroom series from Umbra achieves precisely this balancing act: practical everyday helpers in a clear, modern design that fits into almost any bathroom. The series reveals its understated elegance in white in particular.

Design that does not impose – but complements

The Touch series was developed by the in-house design team of the Canadian manufacturer Umbra. The special feature: All products are made of a matt plastic with a soft-touch surface. The feel is soft, almost velvety – a subtle alternative to high-gloss or metallic bathroom accessories.

The design is reduced to the essentials: gentle curves, clear silhouettes, no visible logos or playful details. In white, the range looks particularly purist – and yet homely.

The most important products in the series

The “Touch” collection has a modular structure. The individual components can be used separately or combined to create a harmonious set:

• Soap dispenser: With large opening for refilling, even pump mechanism and drip-proof design.
• Toothbrush holder: With clever subdivision – ideal for two toothbrushes or as an organizer for make-up brushes.
• Cosmetics bin: Compact size, ideal for small bathrooms or guest WCs. With smooth-running swing lid function.
• Toilet brush: Discreet shape with closed holder – hygienic and unobtrusive.
• Soap dish: Flat shape with non-slip base – for solid bars of soap or small accessories.

Each product has a uniform look and can be flexibly integrated into different bathroom settings – from Scandinavian-bright to industrial-cool.

Who is the series suitable for?

The Umbra Touch series is aimed at people who consciously design – even in supposedly “secondary” rooms such as the bathroom. It is particularly suitable for:

• Design-conscious households that appreciate minimalism
• Small bathrooms or guest WCs where space and clarity count
• Shared flats and families who value robust, easy-care products
• Uniform room concepts in which accessories should blend in rather than stand out

Material & care

The entire range is made of high-quality, BPA-free plastic. The matt surface is resistant to fingerprints, can be cleaned with a damp cloth and hardly shows any water marks. Another plus: the products are lightweight yet stable – an advantage for everyday use.

Stylish restraint

In a room that is often dominated by tiles, ceramics and chrome, the Touch series offers a pleasantly soft contrast. The white color variant in particular appears bright, calm and clear – ideal for people who don’t want their bathroom to be overloaded, but rather consciously designed.

If you like, you can combine the range with natural materials such as wood, raffia or linen – for a modern, homely character. Plants (e.g. ivy, pilea or aloe vera) also harmonize wonderfully with the unobtrusive look of the products.

Styling tips: How to show off the Touch series to its best advantage

The simple design language of the Touch series provides the perfect basis for a calm, well thought-out bathroom concept. If you want to emphasize the look, you can set specific accents with materials and colors:

Less is more here: an area deliberately left blank or a reduced color palette ensure the desired clarity in the room – in keeping with the spirit of touch design.

• Nature meets design: combine the white Touch products with accessories made of wood or bamboo – e.g. a small stool, a toothbrush holder made of natural stone or a wood-look towel rail.
• Textile poles of calm: light towels in cream, sand or grey-beige have a harmonious effect and emphasize the matt surface of the range. Particularly beautiful: fabrics with a waffle texture or linen look.
• Green accents: plants such as ivy, hemp or small succulents provide freshness and enliven the minimalist setting.
• Wall design: A calm mural, a round mirror or narrow shelves in white or oak can also enhance the overall look without overloading the room.

Our conclusion

The Touch series from Umbra shows that design doesn’t have to be loud. With its clear design language, pleasant surface and well thought-out function, it offers a simple way to stylishly upgrade the bathroom – without a great deal of effort. Especially in white, it exudes a modern calm that makes everyday life a little more beautiful.
