Solène
Not just a washbasin, but a new way of experiencing the bathroom space. Inspired by a design icon such as Vico Magistretti’s Eclisse lamp, this freestanding washbasin is designed for those who want an object that can transform, adapt and surprise. A pure, compact and sculptural volume that, with a single gesture, opens up to reveal an intelligent and unexpected storage system. When closed, it appears as a minimal presence; during use, it comes to life, revealing its inner modules and providing all the space needed to organise everyday products, even in the smallest environments. Designed for those who live in compact spaces but do not want to compromise on design, the project combines aesthetics, movement and user experience, transforming a functional element into a true object of desire. A washbasin that does not simply occupy a space, but redefines it.
