Walker Zanger is proud to unveil the latest addition to its Bathroom Vanity Collection -the distinctive Paradigm washstand. With a clean, exquisite profile that harkens to the tenets established by LeCorbusier and Mies van der Rohe, it helps transform the utilitarian bathroom into a luxury spa destination, according to the company. Combining bold metal and carved stone, it also perfectly complements the offerings of Walker Zanger's namesake line of stone mosaics.

The goal of understated luxury is perfectly realized, and immediately evident, in the Paradigm washstand. An open design of resonating rectangles, it features bold, linear legs and rails of brushed metal, available in either Nickel or deep Bronze finishes. The washstand is completed by a stunning solid-stone sink, set within the washstand's top. The perfect pairing of the carved stone and metal facets creates an unmistakable impression; it's also a testament to the craftsmanship of its construction.

Walker Zanger built its reputation upon the quality of its stone and tile product lines. The Paradigm washstand lives up to this tradition. It is available in three different offerings, including the subtly veined Statuary White marble; organically grained Ash Grey limestone; and creamy Heylos limestone. The sink comes pre-drilled to accommodate any standard widespread faucets. Although the Paradigm washstand works perfectly as a stand-alone addition to an eclectic design, it was also conceived, from the outset, to work flawlessly with Walker Zanger Paradigm stone mosaics.
