Beautiful bathroom design does not always come with an unlimited budget.
For builders, developers and homeowners working across multiple bathrooms or tightly costed projects, every specification decision matters. Increasing material, labour and construction costs have created greater pressure to find products that deliver the right look and performance without pushing the overall project beyond budget.
That was the thinking behind Kaha Stonebaths.
We wanted to introduce a genuinely value-focused stone bath collection that could sit comfortably within builder and volume-project budgets while still delivering the materiality, form and finish customers expect from Stonebaths.
Kaha forms part of our Builders Collection and has been developed around one straightforward objective: better access to freestanding stone baths at a sharper price point.
The collection is manufactured from Stonecalcite using our Coatec™ manufacturing method, creating a smooth stone finish with the durability required for everyday bathroom use.
But affordability does not mean limiting the design choice.
The Kaha collection includes a broad range of contemporary freestanding forms, from compact 1500mm baths through to larger 1700mm, 1800mm and 1870mm designs, as well as geometric rectangle shapes and statement round models. This gives builders and renovators the ability to select a bath that works with the scale, layout and aesthetic of the bathroom rather than being restricted to a single entry-level design.
That scope is particularly valuable for group-home builders and developers, where consistency of specification, cost certainty and the ability to offer buyers genuine choice all play an important role.
Within the wider Stonebaths collection, Kaha has a very clear purpose.
The Justina remains one of our most established and widely specified bath ranges, with two decades of history, an extensive colour palette and a strong following among architects and designers.
Kaha provides another option for projects where the priority is achieving the appearance and presence of a stone bath at a more accessible price point.
At a time when project budgets are under increasing pressure, but expectations are still high, price point is more of a consideration now than ever.
Not every bathroom needs the most premium product in the collection. Sometimes good specification is about knowing where to invest and where a more cost-effective solution can achieve the design intent.
Kaha gives builders, developers and renovators another way to bring the look and feel of a freestanding stone bath into the project without asking the budget to carry more than it needs to.
