Giulia Delpiano and Corrado Conti from Architectural Studio over. design has designed the INFINITO sink, which has been created by Italian marble specialists FMG Shapes as a part of their Imera collection. The sink is inspired by the visual effect of a grid plane when it is deformed, building on Einstein's idea that space is not an empty void but made up of four-dimensional structures from matter and energy all combined.
INFINITO creates this infinite visual as it's described as an "eternal moment of absent matter that defines both before and after forming a whole… encapsulating the inexplicable paradox of being and non-being, a continuous flow that is the search for balance; that often uncertain movement that adapts to reality, materializing only when it becomes past and imagining future depends on us."
