If you're after a bathroom that looks and feels genuinely contemporary — not just a white box with chrome handles — the Kartell K-VIT Arc range is worth serious consideration. Bold colour options, a clean handleless design, and a full suite of coordinated furniture pieces make Arc one of the most distinctive collections in the K-VIT catalogue.
In this guide we cover everything you need to know about the Arc range: what's available, which finishes to choose from, who it suits best, and how it compares to other K-VIT ranges like Purity.
What Is the Kartell K-VIT Arc Range?
The Kartell K-VIT Arc is a contemporary, handleless bathroom furniture collection available in a compact but well-considered product line up. Where Purity leans on its broad size range and finish variety, Arc makes a stronger design statement — softer curved profiles, push-to-open doors and drawers, and a deliberately limited palette of on-trend matt colours that feel very intentional rather than safe.
It's the range you choose when you want your bathroom to look like it's been designed, not just furnished.
The Arc Product Range at a Glance
The Arc collection covers all the core furniture pieces needed for a complete bathroom or cloakroom scheme:
Vanity Units — Floor Standing Available in 500mm, 600mm, and 800mm widths, all at 460mm depth. Each floor standing unit features two soft-close drawers and the signature handleless push-to-open mechanism. All three widths are available across all three colour options.
Vanity Units — Wall Mounted The same 500mm, 600mm, and 800mm widths are available in wall hung configuration — ideal if you want a floating, minimal look that's also easier to clean around. Again, soft-close drawers and handleless operation throughout.
Cloakroom Units Compact 500 x 290mm cloakroom units in both floor standing and wall mounted options — perfectly sized for a downstairs WC or small en suite. Available in all three finishes.
WC Units The Arc 500mm WC unit is designed to house a back-to-wall toilet pan and concealed cistern, keeping plumbing neatly out of view for a clean, streamlined finish.
Tall Units The Arc 1400mm wall mounted tall unit provides generous vertical storage without taking up floor space — great for towels, toiletries, and keeping surfaces clear. Available in all three finishes.
Mirror Cabinets 500mm and 600mm wall mounted mirror cabinets complete the range, offering behind-mirror storage that matches the Arc aesthetic precisely.
Finish Options
Arc is available in three carefully chosen matt finishes:
- White — clean, classic, and versatile; works in any bathroom style from minimal to maximalist
- Matt Graphite — a deep, dramatic dark grey that pairs beautifully with brushed brass or chrome brassware
- Cashmere — a warm, muted neutral that sits between white and grey; on-trend and surprisingly versatile
All three are matt finishes, which gives the range a consistent, considered aesthetic across every piece. Matt surfaces also tend to show less water spotting and fingerprints than high-gloss alternatives — a practical bonus in a busy bathroom.
Key Features & Benefits
Handleless Push-to-Open Design Arc's defining feature. No handles means no snagging, no cleaning around awkward metalwork, and a completely unbroken visual line across the furniture. The push-to-open mechanism is smooth and satisfying to use, and keeps the look impeccably clean.
Soft-Close Drawers All Arc drawer units feature soft-close mechanisms as standard — quiet, smooth, and kind to the unit over years of daily use.
Wall Hung and Floor Standing Options Every vanity unit in the Arc range is available in both configurations, so you're not forced to compromise on layout to get the look you want.
Made in the EU Like all K-VIT furniture, Arc is manufactured in the EU to consistent quality standards.
Coordinated Range Every piece in the Arc collection — vanity units, tall units, WC units, and mirror cabinets — is designed to work together as a complete scheme. Mixing sizes and configurations within the range always results in a cohesive finish.
Who Is the Arc Range Best Suited To?
Arc is a range with a strong point of view, which means it's the right choice for some bathrooms and less so for others. It works particularly well for:
- Design-led renovations where you want the bathroom to make a visual statement
- Lovers of dark or neutral tones — the Matt Graphite finish especially suits darker, more dramatic bathroom schemes
- Smaller bathrooms and cloakrooms where the handleless design maximises the sense of space
- Anyone who dislikes cleaning around handles — the push-to-open mechanism genuinely simplifies bathroom maintenance
- Open-plan en suites where furniture visibility from the bedroom makes considered design even more important
If you're drawn to the clean look of Arc but need a wider range of sizes or finishes, it's also worth looking at the Kartell K-VIT Purity range — the two ranges complement each other well if you're furnishing multiple bathrooms in the same property.
Arc vs Purity: Which Should You Choose?
| Arc | Purity | |
|---|---|---|
| Design style | Handleless, curved, minimal | Squared-edge, handle-based |
| Finishes | 3 (all matt) | 6+ (gloss and matt options) |
| Vanity widths | 500mm, 600mm, 800mm | 400mm–800mm |
| Cloakroom option | Yes | Yes |
| Wall hung option | Yes | Yes |
| Best for | Bold design statements | Maximum versatility |
The short version: choose Arc if design is your primary driver. Choose Purity if flexibility across sizes, finishes, and price points is more important.
