A sculptural oval sink and slender cylindrical tap with a separate side control unit are shown in a calm open-plan kitchen, with a floating metal grid and velvety stone-like basin.

BLANCO has introduced the OOVALON sink and LUNEOO tap as a coordinated design duo intended to make the kitchen feel like an extension of the living space. The company says the pairing combines clean lines, functional innovation and tactile elegance, and both products received the German Design Award 2026 and the iF Design Award 2026.

BLANCO describes the sink and tap as a single design concept rather than separate fixtures. Marcel Moritz, the company's head of global design and innovation, said that as BLANCO explored the kitchen as a living space, it found that a softer, more fluid shape could add warmth and approachability without losing clarity.

Tap puts control at the side

The LUNEOO-S tap has a slender cylindrical form and a new side control unit that replaces the traditional lever. Its dual-spray head is held magnetically and uses a flexible braided hose for reach and precision. BLANCO says the control unit can be placed beside, behind, in front of, or to the left or right of the sink, supported by an interface designed to be intuitive and seamless.

The CHOICE LUNEOO-S version turns the tap into a six-in-one drinks station. It can deliver chilled, still or sparkling water and boiling hot water, alongside standard hot and cold tap water. The CHOICE.All unit sits under the sink, and the free BLANCO UNIT app lets households manage settings and receive alerts about CO2 levels and filter changes. Both tap versions come in black matt, satin gold or satin dark steel.

Sink pairs new material with a work surface

The OOVALON sink has an oval shape and is offered in mystic black and cloud white for undermount installation. It is made from VELGRANIT, which BLANCO describes as its latest material innovation: a velvety, sea-polished-stone feel with durability built in. The material is rated to resist heat up to 300°C and is protected by the BLANCO PROTECTION SHIELD, which the company says resists limescale, fading and acidic substances. Fingerprints are designed to remain invisible, and maintenance is described as simple.

OOVALON's CapFlow feature includes a high-quality metal top grid that creates a practical work surface. It appears to float above the sink while integrating with the overall design. BLANCO also combines the tap and sink with a system in the sink cabinet called the BLANCO UNIT; it integrates storage and technology to support efficiency and organisation.

Integrated kitchen system

The design approach reflects a product strategy in which the kitchen is treated as a living space and the sink area is designed as a system combining form, water control, drinks preparation, storage and under-sink technology. The claims around material performance and ease of maintenance are presented as BLANCO product attributes. The announcement focuses on design, materials and configuration, with the duo positioned around coordinated aesthetics and integrated function.
