Curved profiles, radiating lines, soft three-dimensional developments: the design of Antrax IT radiators follows sinuous lines bringing wall-mounted models with a strong sculptural presence, ideal for living spaces, where they become art installations, and bathrooms, enhanced by specially designed accessories. The Saturn & Moon and Tubone series, among the company's historic collections, signed respectively by Peter Rankin and Andrea Crosetta, and Lana, the modular range of radiators designed by AMDL CIRCLE, Michele De Lucchi's studio, move away from the rigid geometries typical of smooth heating plates and express a different aesthetic, based on curvilinear shapes.

Saturn & Moon offer a metaphor for the celestial bodies from which they take their name. Among the longest-standing product families in the Antrax IT catalogue, part of it since 2004, they feature a circular and compact form, with a diameter of 73 cm, created from 100% recyclable cast aluminium, shaped with a convex effect. Their design ideally originates from a section of the dome, which, in the Saturn model, is completed by a horizontal handle placed at the centre for storing towels and bath linens -while their soft convex surface increases thermal output and conceals the electrical connection.
Tubone has a bold, incisive, and strong aesthetic. Its concept is that of a tube, scaled up to achieve an unexpected and highly expressive dimension. With a diameter of 6 cm, the profile is shaped into an elongated ring, through a welding process that joins the linear and curved sections. It can be used individually or repeated, with up to three elements side by side or two stacked, while the addition of a handle, in the vertical installation version, facilitates its use in the bathroom.
Lana, finally, interprets the square motif but softens its corners to achieve a more fluid and original outline. This 33×33 cm module, further characterised by a convex and pleated surface, becomes the basis for creating different wall configurations, horizontally or vertically, also combinable to compose customised patterns. Thanks to its three-dimensional texture, reversed and rotated in the various available compositions, it reacts differently to light and enhances the product's design, inspired by textile yarns.
The three collections can be customised in the various colour options of the Antrax IT range, with the exclusive option of embossed finishes for Lana, which intensifies its tactile quality.
