Lido Tub Named Interior Design’s 2024 Best of Year Awards Finalist

Hydro Systems’ Lido Tub Named Interior Design’s 2024 Best of Year Awards Finalist

The timeless oval — a symbol of balance and infinity — has inspired countless works of art and architecture. The Lido freestanding tub, a modern interpretation of this classic shape, is no exception.

This year, the Lido was recognized as Interior Design’s 2024 Best of Year Awards finalist in the Fittings + Fixture category. Interior Design‘s Editor-in-Chief will announce this year’s winners at the Best of Year Awards ceremony on December 12th in New York City.

Being recognized as an exceptional product in the design industry’s premier awards program, based on the input from those in the architecture and design community, is an extraordinary accomplishment already. It’s a testament to Hydro Systems’ commitment to pushing the boundaries of design and creating truly exceptional products.

 

Why the Lido Caught the Eye of the Design Community:

Timeless, Innovative Design

Drawing inspiration from the iconic 1954 design of Miami’s Fontainebleau Hotel by modernist architect Morris Lapidus, Lido features an expanded 1.5-inch-wide deck that gently dips downward in the tub’sinterior. The design enables ease of entry while making a dramatic and sculptural statement.

Lasting Quality and Customization

Made of a premium solid surface material, HydroLuxeSS™ is crafted from a proprietary blend of ground natural minerals and the best in man-made composites, and represents the latest in eco-friendly performance and commercial-level durability meant to stand the test of time. In addition, Hydro Systems’ tubs are made by hand in the USA and are fully customized to suit any size, style or application.

Color Matched to Any Space

The Lido can be customized to suit any aesthetic preference. The Lido tub can be specified with a matte or polished finish and is available in 15 Premium Color options including: Black, Concrete Grey, Tarpaulin Grey, Stone Grey, Grey Beige, Pastel Violet, Purple Violet, Moss Green, Terra Brown, Sapphire Blue, Distant Blue, Orange Brown, Carmine Red, Red Orange, Signal Orange. Additionally, the brand also offers the ability to color-match any shade.

Advanced Hydrotherapy

Lido can be specified with a choice of Hydro Systems’ cutting-edge hydro therapies, including Cold Plunge, Hydro Systems’ innovation that brings revitalizing cold hydrotherapy into a traditional tub and can be combined with other hydrotherapies; Hydro Fusion, a system that assures consistency of temperature for the bath’s entire duration, maintaining perfect comfort as per the user’s customized preference; and Hydro Indulge, which infuses bathwater with concentrated doses of oxygen, releasing millions of micro-sized, oxygen-rich molecules work to cleanse, heal, and restore the skin, and offering untold relaxing benefits.

Minimalist Aesthetic

Consumers and designers can have access to all of the hydrotherapy options from above, while also adhering to a minimalist aesthetic in their bath space. The Hydro Systems Cold Plunge bath, for example, features a complete cold hydrotherapy system fully integrated into the tub, negating the need to have an additional dedicated tub to use for cold hydrotherapy. While mechanicals are essential to cold hydrotherapy, they often are not aesthetically pleasing to see.  For this reason, Hydro Systems offers the ability to locate the chiller remotely – enabling a seamless and uncluttered silhouette, free from having to station the chiller directly next to the tub.

This isn’t the first time the Lido has captured the attention of the design community. Earlier this year, the tub earned a prestigious 2024 Architizer A+Product Award in the “Best in Bath” category.
