Architizer is the largest awards program in the world celebrating the year’s best architecture and products. This exclusive sink set, featuring the VIGO Matte Stone Peony Sink and Niko Vessel Faucet, was selected over thousands of others within its category.

The essence of quality is authenticity. VIGO’s Matte Stone™ is an ultra-durable, solid surface composite designed to look and feel like carved, polished stone. This specific piece is comprised of two components: The Matte Stone Peony Sink and The Niko Vessel Faucet. Presented collectively, the sleek, minimalist design of this sink set, which is made possible by the unique Matte Stone™ material, enrich most residential and commercial architectural styles.

Traditional fireclay and porcelain products consist of an iron or clay core, coated with enamel. Over time this leads to unsightly cracks on the surface.

A solid-core composition prevents unsightly chips or scratches. Simply buff away any blemishes with the complimentary buffing circle.

Texture is key to the MattE Stone’s appeal — THis sink is hand-polished to render a velvety finish. The basin features a classic apron style with a contemporary twist, reminiscent of the early modernist movement. 

The faucet complements the basin, tapering throughout the breadth of the piece to allow for fluid water flow.

This unique design yields more than just aesthetic appeal; it also greatly enhances functionality. The Niko faucet is composed of 7-layer plated finish to prevent rust, ensure chemical stability, and mitigate wear over time. The tapered design of both the faucet and basin was engineered to allow for even water dispersion. With top-notch quality, this set is extremely low-maintenance.

With rounded contours and a sleek matte white finish that ties the set together, this piece upholds the highest standards for contemporary design.
