The Home Toilet Sink: Just Like in Prison!

If you want to save water and space in your bathroom, the Caroma Profile Smart will do just that. If you don’t mind a sink being on your toilet, that is. It recycles water that washes down the sink drain into the water tank of your toilet for flushing down later.

It’s an interesting idea, but you are going to have to straddle the toilet every time you wash your hands. It would be a funny practical joke on any guests you have over.

The $300 toilet/sink combo comes with a dual-flush tank, so you can flush with the entire contents of the tank or just half of it. It also features chrome buttons, a 12-inch rough-in, a large trapway for eliminating blockage, and a bowl height of 15 inches, for those of you who like to keep up on your plumbing specs.

The Soapy Snail Ring Saver

Snopi is a cute sink-side friend that doesn’t only hold your soap handy, but saves your jewelry from slipping down the drain! The little guy’s eyes make the perfect place to put your rings or other items to keep them safe from scuffs or getting lost. Made of soft silicone, it grips the edge of the sink and the soap so its stable and always read to use.

The sink gives a peek into your personal style more than any other object in the bathroom! So make it count with the SCOOP sink – a minimal option for the modern bathroom that utilizes UHPC (ultra high performance concrete) for strength and a natural feeling form. Precision moulded with smooth edges and a curvaceous basin shape, the resulting style is a weighty, industrial-contemporary style fit for any residential or commercial bathroom.

H2O Enlightenment

The Enliten Tap has 3 revolutionary features that together help reduce user’s overall water consumption. The first is an integrated induction heating system that is capable of providing instantaneous hot water and varying degrees of cooler water- this means less water wasted from waiting. An RGB LED illuminates the water flow to match temperature so users can SEE temp before feeling it. Lastly, an LCD screen creates animated patterns that are harmonious in low water use and more distressed on full blast.

One Serpentine Sink

A winner of the A’Design Award, Spiral takes inspiration from the ancient mythical tale of snakes guarding precious treasure- in this case it’s our most valuable natural resource… water! This serpentine washbasin stands out with its unique form and vibrant, slick blue finish. An ideal option for public use, the hands-free design features a foot pedal to activate and turn off the water flow.

Outside In Kitchen

The Pond Kitchen is, at first glance, a futuristic vision exaggerated in stark white. Upon further observation, a gentler and more familiar aesthetic is revealed in natural lines, curves, and dimensions. With subtle references in shape to pebbles, vines and tree limbs, the appliances, range hood and sink offer a unique, calming visual and tactile experience.

Bathroom B-Sides

The innovative B-SIDE Sink earns its namesake from the dual functionality washbasin that rotates on a vertical axis into a water closet. This is advantageous for not only saving space, but reusing gray water to flush the water closet. Specifically designed for public spaces like sports arenas and concert venues, it aims to improve hygienics, cut down on lines as well as costs for operation and maintenance.

Choking Over A Drain

We are all guilty of choking the kitchen sink with food debris and not matter how diligent we get, the damn thing ends up clogging the sink. A plumber’s delight and our nightmare, the only thing we can do is to adopt preventive measures. We can use innovations like the Water Pass – a double drain cap that allows you to keep the sink unclogged and drains the water at the same time. Do want!

No Knobs, No Problem!

The Little Twist Faucet is just that: a twist on the bathroom fixture that focuses on minimalism and functionality! Rather than knobs and handles that become grimy and damaged over time, the design features a single spout-shaped key situated directly beneath the water flow. This unique placement ensures the key is always rinsed clean and makes it easy for users to wash their hands without soaping up the handles or contaminating their hands with a dirty knob. DO WANT!

High Fashion Faucet

The Oblio faucet is entirely different than any you’ve seen, yet just as intuitive to use! Its fluid form mimics that of liquid, reducing visual weight with its compact dimensions. Though complex in appearance, its striking aesthetic is balanced by straightforward functionality. Ideal for dual sinks, the system consists of not one, but two hoses for distinct uses: aPVC section for precision rinsing and a rigid steel section for a stable flow. At the center is a single multidirectional block that controls both pressure & temp of both sides independently.
