Antoniolupi Employs Resin and Cork for Sustainable Pedestal Sink

A new pedestal sink by Antoniolupi focuses on more than eye-catching aesthetics, which, by the way, it has in spades. Bolgheri, conceived by Gumdesign’s Laura Fiaschi and Gabriele Pardi, begins with a base in cork, the lightweight material that’s harvested from cork oaks without harming the living tree, reconstituted, and bound with natural resin. It’s topped by a basin in Cristalmood, Antoniolupi’s proprietary translucent colored resin that’s fully recyclable. The result is a sleek and sustainable fixture boasting texture and contrast—soft and matte, hard and shiny. The basin’s color options are numerous, while the base comes in honey-toned Natural or darker brown Toasted.
