DESIGN

Quiet Presence

Our wish is to enrich everyone’s daily lives by being an essential part of everyday living.
Our goal is to design products that people grow attached to and can use for a long time.
TOTO design embraces beautiful, comfortable spaces and delightful experiences.

Users play the leading role, and design takes on a supporting role.
This is the essence of the concept of “Quiet Presence.”


Design should not be so bold that it interferes with a user’s unique home and lifestyle.
The essence of “Quiet Presence” is that the user plays the central role, while design provides unobtrusive support.
We strive to design products that users can comfortably use every day, taking into account their lifestyles.

Episodes that Reflect “Quiet Presence”
01

The beauty within
easy-to-use tools

Throughout history, countless excellent tools have supported our lives.
These tools are intuitive to use without conscious thought, and their elegant forms make them a natural part of daily life, carrying a quiet beauty that does not stand out.
This is the concept we value and pursue when designing products.

  • Take rice bowls, for example.
    The base is designed so that it can be held easily without burning one’s hands. It also looks graceful when held naturally.
  • Traditional iron kettles
    Feature surface patterns that increase surface area for better heat retention while also adding decorative beauty.
  • Japanese kitchen knives may appear simple,
    But their forms are carefully adapted to enhance sharpness and suit specific ingredients and cooking styles. The more they are used, the more they fit the hand, creating a sense of attachment.
02

Designs that harmonize with
and complement homes

Living spaces are decorated and completed according to each resident’s tastes.
We hope our products, as building materials that shape these spaces, will complement rather than interfere with diverse lifestyles.

  • As building materials, our products
    Harmonize with spaces surrounded by favorite furniture, accessories, and plants, enhancing individual lifestyles.
  • We provide
    An environment that makes decorating and arranging easier and more enjoyable for users.
  • Our designs
    Incorporate the gentle richness of time through seasonal decorations with flowers, plants, and trees.
Three Design Elements

Three Design Elements of “Quiet Presence”

  • Gentle to people
    “A part of everyday life”
    “Offers peace of mind”
    “Gentle to the human body”
    Designed for comfortable postures and movements so they can be used without inconvenience.
    Beautiful designs that support comfortable daily living.

    NEORESTⓇ NX

    Toilet seats, which come into direct contact with the skin, are designed to be easy to sit on and easy to clean.
    Their curves guide the user into a naturally comfortable position.

    FLOTATION TUB

    Bathtubs with a new concept that feel as if floating on water, maintaining reclining stability and wrapping the user in a soft, relaxing form derived scientifically for comfort.

  • Comfortable
    “Harmonizes with space”
    “Pleasant interface between people and objects”
    “Beautiful appliance”
    Designs that eliminate unnecessary elements, leaving spaces users can decorate themselves, creating harmony between architecture and daily life.

    NEORESTⓇ LS

    A design that balances linear and curved forms, achieving harmony with architectural spaces while expressing elegant individuality.
    Its subtle design accents make it adaptable for interior coordination.

    Washbasin TA

    An asymmetrical form inspired by the uneven and gentle transformations found in nature.
    It creates spontaneous accents that change impression depending on the viewing angle in daily life.

  • Sincere on Beauty
    “Users find it pleasurable”
    “Retains beauty over time”
    “Creating a sustainable future”
    Our designs maintain freshness over time, ensuring they do not cause stress for users.
    We aim to create designs that people can become attached to.
    We also emphasize maintainability and sustainability in the manufacturing process.

    WASHLETⓇ

    Designed to minimize height differences and gaps, allowing easy cleaning with just a light wipe, since it is a product used every day.

    Touchless faucet TLE26 series

    Designed so that the hidden sensor at the spout tip does not compromise appearance, while still allowing easy use.
    It includes a self-powering function and integrates many convenient features into a simple design.
