Love this unique design for bathroom sinks. It gives a whole new meaning to creativity with colors especially. Designing a bathroom with color as a focal point using this glass color infused sink. I just love this!!!

The beautiful Kohler Loure collection has been used in the new 6 star Crown Towers Perth because it offered a luxury minimal design with quality behind the Kohler brand name. Guests have commented on the well thought out plan and particularily the experience from the overhead rain shower.
The Kohler Loure has been used in a number of projects across Perth. You can see more where the Loure collection has been hightlighted

In reply to Judy.

Hi Judy – Elica used to be available in Australia through HAPL but on checking their website it would seem that maybe it’s no longer the case. I’ll email our Italian PR contact to see if they know of a distributor here in Australia.

It takes a tremendous amount of time to put together entries, and a enormous amount of courage to put them up for scrutiny of judges and then ultimately by your peers.

Well done to everyone who took the time to enter !!
Congratulation’s to all the Finalists and Winners from around Australia !!

Sharp looking little unit with some clever design features. As this is the first appliance they’ve designed for an outdoor environment I’m keen to see how they stack up against the competition in the long run.

We’re seeing a lot of appliance manufacturers releasing integrated refrigerators now. F&P, Sub-Zero, Siemens and now Bosch. No longer is Liebherr the only choice.

Customers used to come to us with sketched plans and magazine clippings – now its Google images, Houzz Ideabooks and computer drawn plans. It’s much the same problem, it’s just customers will also expect more from designers.

Eliot – same problem from another perspective – a good call. I guess it’s about managing the walls that are put in front of you the best way possible.

Agree entirely.
Photography has faced exactly this dilemma (although clothed slightly differently) for more than a decade now, with the proliferation of high-quality, low-cost Digital SLRs and cameras.
Just as the quality of the oven doesn’t determine the quality of cooking, a laptop and some google ‘research’ in the case of Kitchen and Bathroom designers or the cost or pixel count of a camera will never determine quality outcomes for design or photography
