Why We Love: A Sink That Comes In Shades

by Rob Brinkley

Villeroy & Boch
  • It gets tiresome staring into that same white-porcelain abyss day after day.
  • They’re called Loop, and they’re made by Villeroy & Boch, a European company dating to 1748. So they must know what they’re doing.
  • Available in five shapes (even triangle) and about a dozen hues, so you can always get what you want.
  • Why shouldn’t a sink come in ShinySun yellow or ShinyPearl pink?
  • Get one and you can say you’re always in the Loop. From $660. www.villeroy-boch.com
