Duravit, a leading German designer bathroom brand, has added a new counter-integrated washbasin to its "Balcoon" bathroom collection, designed by world-renowned Patricia Urquiola.
Balcoon is a collection that skillfully incorporates combinations of different heights and shapes, bringing a sense of openness and depth to the space. The newly introduced ceramic washbasin features a monolithic, cuboid form with a seamlessly integrated bowl.
The smooth lines flowing from the flat counter to the bowl, and the delicate oval-shaped rim that rises, accentuate the exterior, creating an understated yet sophisticated impression. The spacious counter area enhances a calm appearance and architectural presence, realizing a timeless design that harmonizes with modern bathrooms.
