About Touch Hilamosanan

Ang Touch usa ka hilamosanan nga gidisenyo aron magamit sa duha ka hamtong nga tawo sa samang higayon. Ang bugtong nga planggana adunay eskultural ug midagayday nga porma nga nagsunod sa gilihok sa tubig. Ang Touch nagsukod og 1250 mm ang gitas-on, 450 mm ang giladmon, ug 150 mm ang gihabugon. Ang integrado nga mga tiil sa likod nagtugot sa hilamosanan nga makabarog sa iyang kaugalingon. Ang Touch hinimo gikan sa maayong klase nga fire clay ceramic ug gitapos og hamis nga non-stick nga glaze nga sayon limpyohan. Ang porma nagpahayag og pagkasuod ug panaghiusa, nga naghimo sa usa ka pamilyar nga kasangkapan sa banyo ngadto sa usa ka estetikanhong butang.

Design Challenge: Semiotic science determines the colors, forms, light-shadows that the designers will use in design; He created designs with information based on the knowledge of balance and harmony created with colors, forms, light and shadows that trigger the subconscious patterns that humanity has acquired for centuries. In this way, they will create the necessary effect in the target audience and create the necessary emotion for the product to be marketed. This poses a great challenge for creativity.
Research: Easy to clean, modernism, functionalism and minimalism are on the rise in all consumer groups. However, the purpose of this design is to reflect the emotions and meanings on the form. As it is known in the signs, the denotation – emerges when the signified is perceived as it is objectively. Connotation is the implied meaning. Although the Touch washbasin is used as a washbasin for two, it is designed to express the bond, passion and togetherness between two people.

The sink concept is now turning into an aesthetic object rather than a functionality.
