Product> Bjarke Ingels pours design into a bathroom fixture line for Kallista

Bearing a not-coincidental resemblance to his Vancouver House project, the Taper collection of fittings and bathroom accessories is Bjarke Ingels‘ first foray into the home interiors market. For plumbing manufacturer Kallista, it’s also the initial design collaboration with an architect on a suite of products.

At a launch party in New York City for the collection, Ingels described how he developed the design. “The sculpted shape of Taper translates from the geometry of the pipe and sculpts the flow of water to the hands or body,” said Ingels. The lack of overly complex and multi-piece components throughout the collection was born out of the “holistic strategy of creating one simple shape transition that offers a lot of character without excess,” he continued.

The faucet’s flow rate is 1.5GPM; the showerhead is 2.0 GPM. The collection includes towel and tissue holders, and is available in three standard finishes and nine special-order finishes.
