HIDEO Brand Movie
DesignerHideoShimizu
Designer Hideo Shimizu Born in Tokyo in 1952, Hideo Shimizu moved to Milan in the 1970s to pursue his interests in interior design. In 1982 he founded JAXSON, a high-end bathtub brand that brought Japanese concepts of relaxation to the field of luxury furniture design. The sculpted contours and refined silhouettes of his deep soaking tubs united fine craftsmanship with innovative acrylic molding techniques, and his solutions for upscale resorts and residences around the world went on to transform thinking about lifestyle choices in bathing. Shimizu’s subsequent brand, HIDEO, takes the bath experience still further with improved safety considerations, including the ease of stepping in and out of the tub, and leading-edge manufacturing techniques that enhance comfort and performance. His latest creations point the way forward to a new stage of bathtub design.
