LIDO TUB: A MID-CENTURY MODERN MASTERPIECE REIMAGINED
In the world of interior design, timeless elegance often finds
its roots in the past, and the Lido tub is no exception.

The exquisite Lido Tub by Hydro Systems draws inspiration from the iconic architect Morris Lapidus and his revolutionary design for the Fontainebleau Hotel in Miami Beach, which set the stage for the city’s future as a bastion of fashion, design, art, and luxury lifestyle.
In 1955, Morris Lapidus dared to challenge conventions by introducing sweeping curvilinear shapes, vibrant colors, and pronounced textures to the world of architecture. The Fontainebleau Hotel quickly became the go-to destination for the 1960s jet set, cementing its status as a mid-century modernist masterpiece that continues to captivate and inspire to this day.
The Lido tub pays homage to Lapidus’s innovative spirit with its simple yet striking silhouette and a 1.5-inch-wide deck that combines form and function. Each Lido tub is meticulously crafted by hand and can be customized to meet your specific requirements. But what truly sets this tub apart is its ability to transform your bathing experience into a therapeutic, health-filled, and indulgent journey, thanks to cutting-edge hydrotherapy options like Cold Plunge, Hydro Indulge, and
Thermal Air.
Measuring 66 inches in length, the Lido tub is constructed from a patented solid surface material known as HydroLuxeSS™, ensuring both durability and a luxurious feel. The tub is available in a captivating array of 15 premium colors, including Black, Stone Grey, Pastel Violet, and Carmine Red, among others. You can further personalize your Lido tub by choosing between a matte or polished two-tone finish, allowing it to seamlessly integrate into your interior design vision.
The hands that mold and shape each Lido tub are the hands of skilled artisans who take pride in their work, ensuring that every detail is perfected to meet the highest standards of excellence. This commitment to handmade craftsmanship not only adds an extra layer of uniqueness to each tub but also contributes to the preservation of traditional manufacturing methods in the United States.
For those seeking the epitome of sophistication and relaxation, the Lido tub is available for purchase through Hydro Systems’ authorized dealer network. By bringing this reimagined mid-century modern masterpiece into your home, you’ll not only infuse your space with timeless elegance but also pay homage to the visionary spirit of Morris Lapidus and the iconic Fontainebleau Hotel that continues to inspire design enthusiasts worldwide.
