RAPSEL

NAMI
To find a design for this washbasin we imagined to play with papers; while folding and cutting a paper we tried to find a three dimensional shape which contains the lightness and elegance of a slab, likely the oriental discipline Origami.
To transform this drawing into a product, Rapsel used "Nikron", an innovative material which can be worked by slabs with the possibility of choosing within a wide range of colours. "Nami" can be inserted into one plane or simply be fixed on the wall. The two planes of 20cm on each side of the basin were thought as resting planes. The product becomes integrated in the vanity top, solving space limit problems and additional costs.
The innovative technical and aesthetic characteristics of this washbasin are perfectly representative also for applications in the contract sector.

YUME
"Yume" is an integrated solution to concentrate into one single piece, a washbasin, a resting plane, a space to contain towels, and a litter.
All those elements you can find in bathrooms of lobbies in big hotels, restaurants or in lounge bar, simply separated.
We wanted to create a single piece playing with full and empty for the aesthetics, inspired freely by the rational abstraction of the first 900 (De Stijl, Neoclassicism, avanguardie russe).
Also for "Yume" Rapsel used "Nikron" for the technical characteristics and the wide range of colours.
