GABO is a Chinese original bathroom brand. Guided by an international outlook and an Eastern sensibility, it brings minimalist design and aesthetic expression to bathroom products, exploring how people, spaces and everyday rituals connect.
Observe widely. Create with intention.
The Chinese name 观博 draws on the phrase “博观而约取，厚积而薄发”: observe broadly, select thoughtfully and build through accumulated experience. This approach shapes how GABO considers products and design.
From the lines, proportions and feel of bathroom fittings to the relationship between a bath, a basin and its surroundings, GABO considers how a product looks and how it becomes part of daily life.
Design for individual spaces
GABO engages with interior designers and teams working across homes, hotels, guesthouses and commercial interiors. Each setting brings its own scale, materials, light and patterns of use.
Minimalism calls for attention to detail. An outlet position, a finish or the proportions between fittings can shape the whole experience. Through product design and exploration of craft, GABO seeks to offer designers more ways to express their spatial ideas.
APCID: understanding needs, exploring possibilities
Accurate, Personalized, Customized, Innovative and Design are the five ideas behind APCID. It connects an understanding of individual needs with exploration of components, finishes and the experience of use.
A reference image, a sketch or a conversation about daily routines can begin the process. GABO values turning personal ideas into product proposals that can be discussed in relation to a real space.
GABO GALLERY: meet the brand through space
The GABO headquarters showroom occupies a former industrial building in Foshan. Its design respects the existing structure and textures while introducing an Eastern aesthetic and minimalist forms.
Inspired by a landscape of rocks, geometric volumes, glass bricks, natural light and winding routes create a sequence of settings. Fittings, baths and basins become part of a spatial experience rather than isolated objects on display.
Design for everyday life. Information for every step.
Clear information helps owners, designers and project teams move from inspiration to selection, installation and everyday care. This selection and care centre brings guides, answers and design articles together in one place.
