Waterworks and Shinola have partnered on an exclusive new assortment of custom bath fittings and tile. The Detroit-based luxury goods company Shinola opened its first hotel in January 2019, featuring these custom products from Waterworks in their design-forward baths.
“Waterworks has built a pretty extraordinary track record of creating customized products for many of the hospitality industry's most exciting and sophisticated properties around the world.”
“This venture with Shinola marks the first time a Waterworks custom hotel design has been added to our product offering as a limited special edition. We're two innovative American brands that share a commitment to the highest standards for design and craftsmanship.”

Shinola Edition
In the spirit of Shinola, a custom spin was put on the popular Waterworks industrial-inspired Ludlow fittings and accessories. The iconic caseback of Shinola watch translated into an accent badge and rounded escutcheon. And while the body of each fitting is plated in nickel, its lever handles are finished in "Shinola steel,” a detail that creates a uniquely beautiful two-tone effect.
“We worked closely with the Waterworks team to incorporate subtle Shinola details into the product. We looked to our classic Runwell watch design and used the caseback and details as inspiration: specifically, the badge shape and the tiny screws on the backside of the case, which you can see on the round escutcheon.”
“The collection embodies the Shinola look, while delivering the world-class craftsmanship as promised by Waterworks. This particular collaboration is exciting for us in that consumers can really make a piece of the Shinola Hotel a part of their home design.”
Daniel Caudill, Creative Director at Shinola
“Our experience with Waterworks was incredible. Early meetings set the tone for how we approached the process and as I walk through the hotel, I see numerous details that were incorporated from our collaboration. We are honored to have Waterworks incorporate the work we did together on the Shinola Hotel into their legendary assortment of product offerings. We also look forward to working with Waterworks on future hotel projects.”

Waterworks created four custom shades of its handmade Cottage ceramic tile: Matte White, Shinola Blue, Shinola Brown and Shinola Green. Each hotel room received a special color treatment to complement its overall design scheme. The tile sizes were just as customized, allowing them to be installed vertically from floor to ceiling with their grout lines precisely aligned.
