In the universe of bathroom furniture, the washbasin has always played a key role. In recent years, a new trend has emerged strongly: tower washbasins.
These elements are not only functional, but also represent an aesthetic evolution that combines contemporary design and practicality. In this article we will explore what freestanding washbasins are, their distinctive features, and most importantly, which models by MOMA Design can transform your bathroom space into a luxurious yet still functional environment.
WHAT ARE TOWER SINKS?
Firstly, let’s start by saying that tower washbasins are a type of washbasin characterized by a slender, vertical structure that is often floor-mounted.
Compared to traditional washbasins, which are usually installed on a cabinet or wall-hung, tower washbasins, also called column washbasins or simply freestanding washbasins, are distinguished by their sculptural and space-saving design.
MOMA Design offers both simple models, characterized by a smooth surface, and models that become true vertical bathroom cabinets, rich in options and highly customizable in finish and design. All of MOMA Design’s freestanding washbasins will lend a contemporary and sophisticated look to any bathroom, whether it is a small powder room or a master bathroom.
DISTINCTIVE FEATURES OF TOWER WASHBASINS
- Sleek design: the vertical structure makes the tower sinks particularly elegant and minimalist, giving the bathroom a clean and uncluttered look.
- Versatility of materials and finishes: MOMA Design offers its tower washbasins in a wide variety of materials, ranging from matt white Solid Surface to marble, via fluted wood or porcelain stoneware facings.
- Variety of shapes and sizes: MOMA Design has always been synonymous with special, made-to-measure workmanship, which can also be found in our towers. For instance we have cylindrical and minimal models, such as the CIRCULAR TOWER, TOWER ROLL and TOWER STEP. Discover also our models with squarer shapes, built by gluing, that can be accessorized with open compartments, doors or drawers (TOWER CUBE), but also our more innovative washbasins, such as the TOWER OYSTER and TOWER KEPLERO, which allow for a customization that is unparalleled in the market: the installation of the mixer inside the basin, so that the water escapes from the same point to which it flows, an innovation that transforms the oh-so-daily action of washing hands into a new and unprecedented experience.
- Ease of installation: most models are designed for an easy installation, often integrating the plumbing system within the structure of the basin, minimizing the need for complex work. The floor drain is our standard, but almost all MOMA Design models can also be adapted for a wall drain.
- Smart space management: a freestanding washbasin saves considerable space, especially if you opt for solutions with integrated storage systems. New MOMA Design models, such as the TOWER EDO, TOWER PALACE, and TOWER PARIS, for example, are available in both fixed version and version with opening doors (via sliding or hinged systems), allowing the creation of unexpected storage space. A tower sink is always an excellent choice for small bathrooms or for those who wish to maximize all available living area.


THE ADVANTAGES OF A TOWER SINK
- Contemporary aesthetics: the clean, modern lines of tower sinks can transform the bathroom into a design environment, adding a striking visual element. In response to the latest trends in bathroom furniture, which have seen the overbearing return of fluted wood, MOMA Design has designed many freestanding washbasins that can also be “dressed” in this finish, which lends movement to the basin: an example is our TOWER LONDON, the “gentleman” of the column washbasins.
- Functionality: in addition to their elegant appearance, tower washbasins offer excellent functionality. Their height and vertical shape make them extremely comfortable to use, improving ergonomics compared to traditional washbasins. Then, if you opt for MOMA Design’s accessorizable models, a tower washbasin can have everything inside: faucet arrangement on the edge of the washbasin, storage space.
- Flexibility: thanks to their self-supporting structure, tower washbasins can be placed in various locations in the bathroom, offering great flexibility in organizing space.

HOW TO INTEGRATE A TOWER SINK INTO YOUR BATHROOM
Integrating a freestanding sink into your bathroom requires attention to the overall design and layout of the space. Here are some tips.
First, decide where to place the tower sink so that it becomes the focal point of the bathroom. Consider natural lighting and visibility from the entrance.
Having this possibility, one bathroom can accommodate two freestanding sinks, either identical or contrasting, to better delineate a couple’s personal space.
Match the style: coordinate the tower sink with other bathroom elements, such as faucets, mirrors, and accessories, to create a harmonious and consistent look.
If you want an extreme minimalist look, you can opt for an overhead faucet, which conducts water directly to the freestanding sink.

Accessorize your tower sink with care: complete the look with appropriate accessories that complement the style of the sink.
If you opt for a simple tower sink, choose complementary accessories where you will find it easy to place your bathroom items, such as our NICHE or LINE bars, which can be enhanced with towel racks, soap dishes and toothbrush holders.






In conclusion, tower sinks represent an exciting trend in the world of bathroom furniture, offering the perfect blend of functionality and aesthetic design.
With their sculptural shape and clean lines, they can transform any bathroom into a sleek, modern space.
Whether you are renovating your bathroom or designing a new space, considering a tower sink by MOMA Design could be the right choice to take your space to the next level of style and practicality!
