About Touch Wasbak

Touch is een wasbak die is ontworpen zodat twee volwassenen deze tegelijkertijd kunnen gebruiken. De enkele kom heeft een sculpturale en vloeiende vorm die de beweging van water volgt. Touch meet 1250 mm in lengte, 450 mm in diepte en 150 mm in hoogte. Geïntegreerde voeten aan de achterzijde zorgen ervoor dat de wasbak vrijstaand kan worden geplaatst. Touch wordt vervaardigd uit fijn vuurvast keramiek en afgewerkt met een glad, antiaanbak glazuur dat eenvoudig schoon te maken is. De vorm drukt nabijheid en verbondenheid uit, waardoor een vertrouwd badkameronderdeel wordt getransformeerd tot een esthetisch object.

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.
Inspiration
We are drawn to each other by love. Our shields drop, we experience excitement and a sense of oneness. We melt into each other. This closeness is reminiscent of the feeling of touching and being together.

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