The human desire to perceive instead of just grasping everything rationally forms the basis for the basin line Tangens from Alape. A clearly defined wave in the basin provides a sensual accent in addition to the puristic lines normally expected from Alape. The basin’s appearance changes depending on where it is viewed from. From a distance it appears deep; it is only when we approach it that we see that there are in fact two different levels. The exterior shape is also extremely geometric. The basins made of glassed steel are available as a built-in basin, an undermounted basin, a sit-on basin and two variants of washstands.
