Kohler x SCADpro — Future of Hydrotherapy

Partnering with Kohler through the SCADpro program to envision the future of hydrotherapy, exploring how technology and thoughtful design can transform bathing into a holistic wellness experience.

Our Goal

To reimagine hydrotherapy for modern wellness needs by integrating smart technology, personalized experiences, and therapeutic benefits into Kohler's product ecosystem, creating solutions that promote physical and mental well-being through innovative water-based therapies.

Constraints

A 16-week collaborative timeline working directly with Kohler stakeholders to develop innovative yet feasible concepts. Solutions needed to align with Kohler's brand standards, manufacturing capabilities, and market positioning while pushing the boundaries of current hydrotherapy technology.

Our Outcome

We developed a comprehensive hydrotherapy system that adapts to individual wellness goals, offering personalized water therapy programs, integrated sensory experiences, and smart monitoring capabilities. The solution combines Kohler's craftsmanship with cutting-edge wellness technology to create truly transformative bathing experiences.

What was the challenge?

Modern consumers increasingly prioritize wellness and self-care, yet traditional hydrotherapy products offer limited personalization and fail to leverage technology effectively. The challenge was bridging therapeutic benefits with user-friendly technology while maintaining the luxury and quality expectations associated with the Kohler brand.
