erratum: the "Tête de moine" is not exactly made in the region of Bern but in the (swiss) Jura montains.
I like the Girolle for soap !

I think that means there is no overflow. And "Basin Basin" is a very clever solution around that issue.

I like an Float Radio by Daniele Bortotto! I think that this it's a wonderful project. I usually use a radio in the bathroom when I have a shower.
Good luck Daniele.

Most of them are cute, but not really inventive.
I liked the Drawing Soap Kit and the Swiss Soap the best.
The first for its romantic whimsical character, the second because it's clean and a good way to read a traditional tool in a different way.
The most useless is Basin Basin because if someone uses to fill the sink for whatever purpose, shouldn't he/she buy a fillable sink from the beginning instead of storing an extra sink somewhere just in case?
There are more fillable sink than not.

I like the clever bateau for a kids toy, but I sort of agree with Nick in that the rest is a lot of trivial stuff. As for the Bouroullec basin, a typical example of designers playing around with forms and esthetics and not considering practical issues of a the product. Those upper forms with the recessed surfaces would collect water, soap or whatever and would need CONSTANT wiping and cleaning. Maybe it's just me but I like to spend as little time as possible in the bathroom; give me something nice looking but also practical and efficient.
