The Nouveau collection of washbasins, cabinets and mirrors feature geometric and sinuous lines born from a balance of basic and classic shapes such as circles, semi-circles and parallelepipeds and creates a game of volumes in a succession of full and empty spaces.
Designers Paola Vella and Ellen Bernhardt were inspired by early twentieth century Art Deco and the collection takes refined suggestions from that era and reworks them with the taste and sensitivity of a contemporary perspective.
The Nouveau washbasin is characterised by asymmetrical shapes with bold edges that serve as practical support surfaces. It can be wall mounted or a countertop – supported by a metal structure that elegantly defines its shape. The structure is available in brushed bronze, satin-finish brass or matte black finishes and can be combined with various accessories such as towel rails, wooden drawers and marble or stone storage tops to offer a functional and complete product.
Five elegant mirrors are available in the Nouveau collection and feature clean and simple lines refined by geometric brass details. The oval mirror stands out in particular for its brass frame extending over the glass surface and turning into a small shelf.
Based in Milan, Bernhardt & Vella was founded in 2008 by the German designer Ellen Bernhardt and the Italian interior designer Paola Vella.
