Cubes

Lines And Curves

-

Antoniolup­i gestures to the world of fashion with its new Gessati basins, which reference the lines on a pinstripe suit. The collection of round, oval and rectangula­r top-mounted sinks was designed by Tuscan studio GUM Design, and brings a new expression to a familiar material. Gessati fuses natural Carrara marble with the precision of the machine. Each basin is a compositio­n of marble sheets (1cm or 2cm in thickness) joined by coloured resin and carved away into a curvaceous form with a router. The precise ‘pinstripes’ are revealed as concentric rings on two sides of the basin. In contrast, the natural colour variation in the stone beautifull­y disrupts the order of the geometry and makes it impossible for any two Gessati basins to be the same.
