Ten years in the making: Voda marks a decade with Onyx

A decade in design is measured not only by what has changed, but by what has endured. For New Zealand plumbingware brand Voda, its 10-year anniversary offers an opportunity to reflect on both, marking a period shaped by material innovation, evolving interiors and a continued focus on how products perform in everyday life.

Rather than looking back with a retrospective collection, Voda is celebrating the milestone with an expression of where the brand is heading.

Onyx brings together the knowledge developed over its first decade in a versatile tapware collection designed around longevity, personalisation and the rituals of daily use.

The collection’s defining idea is choice. Each mixer is supplied with two interchangeable handle designs, allowing designers and homeowners to select between a smooth, minimal profile and a finely grooved finish with greater tactility. 

It is a subtle shift that gives one fitting two distinct personalities, while allowing the final detail to respond more closely to its surrounding material palette.

Onyx also introduces Brushed Bronze, the newest addition to Voda’s PVD brushed-metal finish portfolio. With its warm undertone and restrained lustre, the finish sits comfortably alongside natural stone, textured plaster, timber and softly lit interiors. It joins Brushed Brass, Brushed Black and Brushed Stainless, creating a considered family of four finishes suited to both tonal and contrasting schemes.

While the collection is visually refined, much of its innovation lies beneath the surface. Each product is made from premium lead-free 304 stainless steel, selected for its corrosion resistance and long-term durability. The PVD coatings are also designed to resist fingerprints, reducing the maintenance commonly associated with brushed-metal tapware.

Voda’s Refresh trim-replacement system further supports the collection’s ability to evolve, enabling visible components to be updated without replacing the entire concealed assembly. For bathrooms designed to last well beyond a single aesthetic cycle, this separation between infrastructure and finish offers a more adaptable approach to specification.

Ten years after Voda began, Onyx captures a more mature approach to product design: greater flexibility, material durability and close attention to the details people touch every day. Backed by a comprehensive 10-year warranty, it is an anniversary collection designed not simply to commemorate the brand’s first decade, but to carry its thinking into the next.
