BLANCO has developed a matched sink and tap concept intended to make the kitchen feel like a continuation of the living area. The OOVALON sink and LUNEOO tap share a design language that the company describes as combining clean lines, functional innovation and tactile elegance. Both products received a German Design Award 2026 and an iF Design Award 2026.
Marcel Moritz, BLANCO’s head of global design and innovation, said the company’s exploration of the kitchen as a living space led it toward softer, more fluid shapes. According to Moritz, those forms can add warmth and approachability while retaining clarity. The remarks are the company’s design rationale rather than an independent assessment of performance.
Tap combines new controls with optional drinks station
The LUNEOO-S tap has a slender cylindrical body and replaces a conventional lever with a separate side control unit. That unit can be placed beside, behind, in front of, or to the left or right of the sink. The dual-spray head is held magnetically and uses a flexible braided hose intended to improve precision and reach.
The CHOICE LUNEOO-S version expands the fitting into a six-in-one drinks system. It can deliver chilled still water, chilled sparkling water, boiling hot water, and standard hot and cold tap water. Its CHOICE.All unit is installed beneath the sink. A free BLANCO UNIT app lets households manage settings and receive alerts, including notifications about CO2 levels and filter changes. The tap is offered in black matt, satin gold and satin dark steel.
OOVALON uses new VELGRANIT material
The OOVALON sink has an oval form and is designed for undermount installation. It comes in mystic black and cloud white and is made from VELGRANIT, which BLANCO describes as its latest material innovation. The company says the surface feels as smooth as sea-polished stone and is built for durability.
BLANCO lists heat resistance up to 300°C. The sink also carries the BLANCO PROTECTION SHIELD, which the company says resists limescale, fading and acidic substances. BLANCO adds that fingerprints remain invisible and that maintenance is simple. These are manufacturer claims about the material and finish.
The sink’s CapFlow feature includes a high-quality metal top grid that creates a practical work surface. The grid appears to float above the basin while forming part of the overall design.
System integration extends below the sink
BLANCO UNIT combines the tap and sink with an optimised system inside the sink cabinet. It integrates storage and technology in the same space, with the aim of supporting efficiency and organisation in the kitchen. The concept shows how product design is moving beyond visible surfaces to include the fittings, water treatment and cabinet layout beneath the worktop.
The two products are presented as one design story rather than separate fixtures, with shared attention to fluid geometry, tactile surfaces and concealed technical components. The approach aligns with BLANCO’s framing of the kitchen as an extension of living space, though the practical effect would depend on installation and use.
