Luxury kitchen and bath product company Kallista is releasing a new collection of fixtures designed by BIG, global firm of Danish starchitect Bjarke Ingels, Fast Company reports.
Prices for pieces in the collection, called The Taper Collection, range from $1,095 for faucets to $350-$425 for towel bars.
These high-end fixtures are designed using the principles of Gesamtkunstwerk, a concept that merged with architecture and design during the early 20th-century Bauhaus movement in Germany, meaning “total work of art.”
"There’s often no relationship between the big idea of a building and the way things are inside, down to the little details," Ingels tells Fast Company. Hence, Ingels hopes the designs will “merge the practical and the sublime.”
