Square Sinks

From Julie:

A few years back, I spotted a square sink in a British decor magazine. I had an instant chemical reaction, and when we remodeled our house, I searched everywhere for the sink. It turned out Waterworks carried it (at a hefty markup, of course). I scoured the internet and found it for half the price. Sadly, that site closed down. You can find similar sinks at lacava.com; Boffi (boffi-la.com) also makes a square bathroom sink that’s in the same genre. Our architect, Jerome Buttrick (www.buttrickwong.com), designed the stands, which we had fabricated by a local metalworker. The whole project cost far less than if we went with the Waterworks unit (especially since we used industrial-style Chicago faucets; go to www.faucet.com).

Probably a good thing this tub wasn’t around at the time…
