We’re celebrating: Red Dot – Best of the Best. With AERRA HAZE, VALLONE® has received the top award at this international design competition for the second time. AERRA HAZE is both a vanity ensemble and a spatial sculpture. The basin, mirror, and faucet share a common design language, combining materiality, proportion, and function into a sculptural unity. Tundra Grey marble and stainless steel speak a shared architectural language. The contrasts are not resolved but deliberately highlighted. Nature meets precision. Calm meets dynamism. Material as a design element.

"At first glance, AERRA HAZE appears so natural as a holistic ensemble – and it is precisely this that gives it its special power," – Red Dot Jury, 2026.

Transition: From a brushed to a high-gloss polished surface. The stainless steel mirror creates a seamless transition from diffusion to clarity. AERRA TAP complements the ensemble with intuitive, hydro-progressive operation and appears to emerge almost weightlessly from the mirror surface.

The monolithic basin, crafted from Tundra Grey marble, is defined by a precise split – inspired by the power of water, which shapes the stone over time. Each component has its own distinct identity, yet remains part of a larger whole.

Designers' Night at the Red Dot Design Museum provided the perfect setting to celebrate this moment together with our team and the international design community.

Experience AERRA HAZE live: Through July 30, 2027, the ensemble is part of the “Red Dot Milestones 2026” exhibition at the Red Dot Design Museum at Zollverein. Thanks to its location right next to the VALLONE® headquarters, a visit to the exhibition can be easily combined with a visit to our showroom.
