Tapware made to be lived with.
Designed by a family that has fitted out Australian bathrooms since 1973. Kerox ceramic cartridges inside, finishes built to last, and every piece in stock in Melbourne.
Fifty years of bathrooms taught us what lasts.
Designer Bathware is a Melbourne family business, three generations deep. Over the years we've seen which taps still look new after a decade and which ones drip, tarnish and get replaced.
Mimi is what we built from that: tapware with the parts you can't see done properly, in finishes that suit how Australians design bathrooms. We hold the stock ourselves, so we stand behind every piece.
The parts you can't see are the ones that matter
Most taps look alike on the shelf. The difference shows up years later, in how they feel, flow and wear.
Kerox ceramic cartridge
The valve that controls water flow and temperature, using precision-ground ceramic discs.
Neoperl aerator
Mixes air into the stream at the spout. Neoperl is a specialist in water-flow parts.
PVD and AEA finishes
PVD bonds the colour to the metal in a vacuum. Chrome, Matte Black and Antique Brass use advanced AEA electroplating.
WELS and WaterMark
Rated for water efficiency and certified to the Australian plumbing standard.
