Domenico de Palo's Sexy Sliver of A Sink. The Silenzio For Antonio Lupi.





Silenzio is a Corian washbasin that is a sexy sliver of Industrial Design. The concept behind Silenzio is to offer only the functionality and sculptural mark of a washbasin, allowing it to be perfectly integrated into the wall, dominated by the atmospheric elements of cut and light.





The unmistakable signature of Domenico de Palo is even more evident in this washbasin which is able to blend into the surface onto which it is installed. Silenzio appears to come out of the wall, giving it a life and shape.






The Silenzio washbasin is realized in Corian and, after it has been positioned (with puttying and plastering), it can be painted just like the rest of the wall, so that it disappears into the same. Silenzio can be described as a “nude” washbasin to be dressed in clothing that can be changed and updated with different finishes.





Silenzio offers an unconventional reinterpretation of the bathroom. It is a fusion between a functional object of the past and a newly invented element of the present.

Kanera's Custom Made Furniture For Their Beautiful Undulating Wash Basins.




About four years ago I wrote a post on some lovely custom made sinks made by Germany's Kanera whose basins, with their undulating forms, let the water pool like little natural lakes.



Since that post, Kanera has discontinued The Kanera D model and added the smaller Kanera 1X. Custom-made furniture is now available to complement these modern Kanera washbasins. Their washbasin units are made according to the customers' design guidelines as well as their furnishing requirements, which are tailored to each individual building project.










The Kanera 1E, 1H and 1X sinks, made of enamelled steel, are available as wall mounted washbasins or counter top inset vessels or in custom made bathroom furnishings, like the ones shown in this post, by Kanera.

The 1H:

The 1E:

The 1X:


All washstand models can be custom-made with individual trough position up to a total length of approx. 1800 mm. If clients so wish, all washstands can be supplied with drilled faucet and special plumbing holes. For the enameled steel washstands there is a choice of drainage system with or without an overflow. Double washbasin units are also available.

Kanera offers you an integrated consultation service spanning all stages in the design of your washbasin unit. From choosing the right washbasin model to deciding on your requirements in terms of functionality and furnishings, as expert partners in your building project we support you in each individual phase of the process. From simple hand-drawn sketches to professional renderings, upon request we will also compile all the necessary documents on product presentation and specification for you.

You can now purchase some of their sinks in their online store.

Indoor and Outdoor Alabaster Furnishings That Glow From Within.





Back in 2007, I introduced you to Albatros Design, a French company that created illuminated marble furniture and fireplace consoles. The luxurious pieces were available in multiple marble finishes and applications. Since then, the company has been renamed and now continues to design and customize illuminated pieces of furniture and installations, only made from alabaster.*




Atelier Alain Ellouz now offers more luxurious illuminated items for private homes, restaurants, retail stores and hotels. The pieces combine a traditional material with a modern effect. Coffee tables, dining tables, bases, console tables, bathroom sinks, pedestals, vessels and basins are wonderful additions to any interior.
