EK is a collection of furniture and leather goods born from the collaboration between E15, Kaldewei and our office. The architectural lines and the natural feel of the collection blur the boundaries across the domestic landscape and bring warmth to the bathroom environment.
The eclectic collection presents a towel rack, a stool, a footrest, and a bridge in natural oak. A leather pouch and strap fasten seamlessly with magnets to enhance the bathing experience.
“There will be slight markings. The first ones are probably the worst. But over time, others are added. This creates a beautiful patina that gives the product character and emotion.”

European Oak, Natural Leather with water repealing coating
The new collection features furniture crafted from solid European oak, including a stool, bench, footboard, and bathtub bridge, all finished with natural oils. These functional pieces are complemented by accessories made from soft, water-repellent leather. Cleverly designed, a leather pouch and towel loop attach magnetically to the edge of the tub, adding convenience to the bathroom experience. The warm, natural textures of the e15-KALDEWEI collection perfectly complement Kaldewei’s iconic glazed titanium steel products, offered in a unique color palette.
This collaboration is built on shared values and the design expertise of both partners. Kaldewei, a renowned German brand with over 100 years of experience, is celebrated for its iconic bathroom products made from glazed titanium steel. Meanwhile, e15, a leading European furniture brand, is known for its strong roots in architecture and design, shaping a contemporary German aesthetic. Both brands share a passion for sustainable materials, and their collaboration is further strengthened by German designer Stefan Diez, who led the creative direction for the e15 for Kaldewei furniture and accessories, as well as other Kaldewei products. Diez, known for his 10 Circular Design Guidelines” brings his innovative vision to this unique partnership.
