Aquatica True Ofuro Black Freestanding Stone Japanese Soaking Bathtub Since it was first introduced, Aquatica’s Ofuro series has proved very popular, due in large part to its inspiration – the ancient traditions of Japanese bathing. Modern-day bathers love the ability to sit and soak in this superb, contemporary interpretation of olden-style Japanese wooden tub, which provides bathers with a perfectly designed, sculpted bath with internal seat and elevated rim for neck and head support, in which they can immerse themselves up to their neck. Now, the True Ofuro offers bath lovers one more exciting option – the choice of Graphite Black using our award-winning and ground-breaking AquateX™ solid surface composite, around which to create your stunning new bathroom décor. Ofuro is also available with an optional inline water heater and digital control panel with temperature display, which will reduce water consumption and provide for a prolonged soaking experience at very comfortable temperatures. Thanks to the AquateX™ material, this Japanese soaking tub retains heat for much longer and has a silky and smooth surface. Besides being one of our most space conscious bathtubs, the freestanding and petite construction of this Japanese style bathtub means that it can be installed pretty much anywhere in your bathroom.

The True Ofuro Mini came about as the direct result of your requests. It too is inspired by the ancient traditions of Japanese bathing that led to the development of our incredibly popular True Ofuro. It too draws on the best ergonomic principles to sculpt a bath with internal seating and built-in headrest, made available in a very compact footprint to fit into even the smallest bathrooms. In fact, Aquatica’s clever designers have managed to create this ‘small and tall’ tub, deep enough for full body soaking in a footprint of just 43”. Now we have made one more important innovation to the Ofuro Mini - the addition of a stunning graphite black option, using our award-winning and ground-breaking AquateX™ solid surface composite. Just think how that might look in your bathroom! It is taller and deeper and features a slightly elevated rim for improved neck and head support, as well as a convenient ergonomic built-in seat, allowing the body to comfortably emerge to maximum water capacity. The height of the True Ofuro Mini Japanese style soaking bathtub is substantially taller than the original True Ofuro bathtub, and therefore we recommend people who are shorter than 170cm also purchase our stylish teak wood step. Aquatica’s international industrial design team, used advanced CAD tools, modeling and repeated testing with real size prototype units so that we could reach the optimal balance between ergonomic comfort and visual appeal. Our AquateX™ material is the star in this Japanese soaking tub as it retains heat much longer and also has a silky and velvety surface. This bathtub is currently one of our most space conscious bathtubs at a size of 43" x 43" (1090x1090mm), making the freestanding and petite construction of this Japanese style bathtub easy to be installed in any sized bathroom.

Inspired by the ancient Japanese tradition of bathing in Ofuros, Aquatica® set out to re-imagine the 'sit and soak' ofuro using the brand's technologically advanced signature AquateX™ solid surface material. The result was the innovative True Ofuro™ deep soaker tub collection. Aquatica’s True Ofuro Mini Japanese soaking tub was designed in response to customers' requests for an even smaller version of True Ofuro soaker tub! This modern interpretation of an ancient Japanese bathing tradition is crafted in Italy from our signature AquateX™ solid surface material. Its space-conscious footprint of 43" x 43" (1090mm x1090mm) makes it an ideal option for condos and small bathrooms, while its tall design provides a deep, full-body soak. True Ofuro Mini features a slightly elevated rim for improved neck and head support, as well as an ergonomic built in seat, allowing the body to be comfortably emerged to maximum water capacity. Optional teak wood step available for easier access into the tub!

Aquatic Artists crafted the ultimate grotto cave in Moorestown, NJ. We created a large waterfall grotto that is 6.5′ high and cascades into the gunite pool. We also built a side entrance to this grotto cave that has a waterfall cascading over it. We designed the inside of the cave to have a portion wet near the front opening and dry towards the rear. Also, we installed cedar wood logs into the ceiling inside the cave to enhance its natural look.

This stunning Viking Fiberglass Pool is the perfect example of how you can create a natural oasis right in your own backyard! The stone decking and rock structure with a waterfall is simply exquisite. The sapphire blue water was created via the Poseidon pool model and the entertainment options are endless here! This pool was installed by Aquatic Pools in Fort Mohave, AZ.

Aquatic Artists designed and built this unique 5′ high water feature into a hill on this gunite pool in Spring City, NJ. The water feature has four natural stone waterfalls that cascade into the pool. One of the waterfalls is a spa waterfall that starts at the base of the spa on the upper patio and streams down into the pool. We also added a lounging rock on the right side of the waterfall to allow bathers to sit and allow the water to cascade over them. Lastly, we placed planting beds through this water feature to enhance the natural look.

They’re also easy to care for, love natural light and are ideally suited near the edges of a pond. The weeping hemlock at the top right in the photo flourishes in moist soil and offers a bit of shade which helps balance the water temperature.
