+ The Maarten Baas interview at 3LC... "We had that industrial clay here for some other things, and then I thought: hey, let's make furniture with that stuff. So I just started making it and it ended up like the Clay furniture collection.".
The topographical bathroom sink design is really cool! I'm wordering if outdoor enthusiasts would have a natural "inclination" towards this type of product.
If I may add: outdoor enthusiasts would probably get a stronger interest if the designs would be scaled topographical of certain landmarks, such as "Taho", "Superior", or even the mythical "Walden", from Henry David Thoreau's "Walden:, or Life in The Woods".
That topo sink is giving me flashbacks to the hours and hours of creating topography models out of cardboard. The horror!
Meanwhile, the Joe Malia stuff is out of control awesome.
When I first saw this sink the urban planner in me said "wow, this is awesome," but then the neat freak in me took over and said "but this would be a pain to clean."
I second Jw thoughts. On both counts.
