A small town in Yemen called Kaokabam could have inspired the design of this washbasin collection. This African village is known for it’s unusual graded reservoirs built on dugout rock. In a similar manner the side surface of the washbasin, thought out to lay dripping bathroom objects, reminds us of the rounded steps in Yemen. This collection is completed with a suspended wall panel which allows the addition of other bathroom furnishings and accessories e.g. shelves, drawers, doors, mirrors, lamps, cupboards, configuring a system capable of solving multiple needs and adopting many different distribution variations.
