Believe it or not, wash basins can be stylish. We’ve moved on the from standard round and white basin to contemporary, stylish, and elegant designs that stand out and add some character to your bathrooms. If you’re wondering how that’s possible, then check out the list we’ve put together. 

Inspired by 20th mid-century modern styles, Terri Pecora in collaboration with Design Studio VitrA to offer the feeling of a vintage living room. In an interesting twist, the team includes light and airy furniture with bathroom fixtures to bring a sense of home and belonging.

Another mid-century modern styles makes this list. Only this time, the wash basin brings in a retro look to give us a truly versatile design with the ability to suit any taste. With a throwback to the 1950s, this ergonomic design tastefully blends with natural materials, such as steel and wood.

This is a range of washbasins, made possible through Diamatec® – a new material that was developed using a unique blend of alumina and chamotte. The Ultra-thin ceramic technology is characterized by a sensual expression that makes them unique in their simplicity. Ideal Standard offers different shapes combined with a revisited colour palette harking back to their historical colours.

This elegant rectangular washbasin in a classically minimalist design has reduced precise edges and very generous interior dimensions. It’s design is immortalised in long-lasting KALDEWEI steel enamel that harmonises perfectly with the PURO bath series designed by Anke Salomon.
