Monolithic washbasin
Monolithic washbasin

White Tulip is the first full bathroom
created entirely by Philippe Starck.
From bathtubs, washbasins and
furniture, toilets and bidets, to matching
mirrors and a complete collection of
taps, the exceptional form of all the
components within the series echoes the
organic silhouette of a tulip in bloom,
exuding an almost sculptural and delicate
character.
The monolithic, free-standing ceramic
washbasin is particularly eye-catching.
