1. The Hands-Free
There are no taps;
a motion sensor triggers a flow
of water from above the sink. The pipe underneath is veiled by a frosted resin panel. Room
by Sara and Robyn Karp; sink by Ken Hudes; the brushed-stainless-steel mosaic tiles are from Ann Sacks.

2. The Glowbox
By I-Beam
Design, this sink
is custom-made
from fluorescent
acrylic cabinetry and illuminated from within like a big night-light.

3. The Scallop
A hand-carved Marmara marble sink from the
twenties that was originally in a villa on the Bosporus, and found at
Ani Ancient Stone. Room designed by Matthew Smyth.

4. The Waterfall
When you enter this room by Ronald Bricke & Associates, a gentle cascade
of water above the sink turns on automatically and tumbles down
a chute of bronze and fourteen-karat gold leaf. The sink itself is a stainless-steel trough.

5. The Jewel
Another I-Beam design, made of Indonesian honey onyx from Modern Stone Age. It’s mounted atop a glass countertop that extends into the living room.

6. The Exotic Wood
This Boffi
sink, made from cristal plant (a material similar to Corian), is mounted
in zebrawood. There’s only one; it’s reflected in a mirrored wall. Room by West Chin.
