Hansgrohe and ESDi-URL team up to create the bathroom of the future

Tuesday, January 11, 2022. The bathroom solutions brand Hansgrohe and ESDi-URL Higher School of Design have signed a collaboration agreement to promote innovation and sustainability among students. This collaboration consists of holding a contest open to the 130 first-year students of all mentions of the Undergraduate Degree in Design, taking place at the end of the first semester of this course.

Based on the question “How do you imagine the bathroom of the future?”, the students will propose innovative proposals for new uses of the bathroom or some elements of it that enhance the user experience and that, at the same time, are environmentally responsible.

The ten finalists in the competition will have the opportunity to present their projects at the Hansgrohe Spain offices in front of a jury made up of Carlos Cabezón, academic director of the Master in UX / UI and Luis Montes de Oca, Marketing Director of Hansgrohe Spain.

“This alliance demonstrates the firm commitment of the company to the young talent of our country (…) we are very happy to be able to contribute to the prom.otion of the responsible innovation among students from a prestigious school such as ESDi-URL” explains Luis Montes de Oca.

Georgina Bombardó, assitant director of ESDi-URL, assures that “it is very positive for our students that they have a first contact with a design company as Hansgrohe from the first year. From ESDi-URL we firmly believe in the importance of integrating the business world with the academic since the students arrive at the University ”.
