Sorgente is a wall-mounted washbasin system composed of two distinct modules, conceived as both the origin and the point of convergence of everyday gestures related to water and care. Each module is defined by a specific composition of carved basins, convex resting elements, and small integrated containers for soap and accessories.
The surfaces are shaped through a sequence of cavities and reliefs: alongside the basins are soft protrusions, resembling small spheres emerging from the material, which function as support surfaces, while recessed bowls accommodate objects, shaping a surface that accompanies and organizes daily care rituals. The arrangement of these elements varies from one module to another, generating complementary configurations.
The two modules can be paired, alternated, repeated, or used individually, giving rise to multiple compositions. This flexibility allows the system to adapt to different spaces, needs, and rhythms, while maintaining a constant balance between function and form.
Their longitudinal dimension corresponds to the modules of various Lithea wall systems, establishing a direct dialogue with them. The system aligns with their rhythm and modularity, contributing to the creation of a coherent environment in which material, architecture, and everyday use merge into a single system.
