Orka's Noto Series: Redefining Bathroom Elegance

Orka Design Team's Noto Wins Bronze at A' Design Award 2024

Inspired by the historic city of Noto, Sicily, Orka Design Team's Noto Series brings sophistication and innovation to compact bathroom spaces, earning a prestigious Bronze A' Design Award.

The Noto Series by Orka Design Team is a testament to the fusion of cultural heritage and modern design. Drawing inspiration from the baroque architecture and vibrant atmosphere of Noto, Sicily, this bathroom furniture line transforms the essence of the city into a tangible, functional art form. The series stands out for its geometric shapes, textured surfaces, and a palette that mirrors the city's hues, offering an aesthetic retreat within the confines of one's home.

Distinctive for its space-saving design, the Noto Series is tailored for narrow bathrooms without compromising on style or functionality. The incorporation of a hygienic ceramic basin and a durable metal structure, decorated with special coatings, ensures a product that is not only long-lasting but also environmentally conscious. The series' modern design is complemented by its ease of use, making it a perfect addition to any contemporary bathroom.

Realized through advanced production technologies, the Noto Series features metal parts finished with high-resistance electrostatic paint and mirrors equipped with energy-saving, touch-sensitive on-off switches. These mirrors also boast an ecological design, free from harmful substances like lead and copper, reinforcing Orka's commitment to sustainability.

Available in two sizes and three color options—White, Black, and Colorful Concept—the Noto Series provides versatility to suit various tastes and bathroom dimensions. Orka's meticulous approach extends to the packaging, using recyclable materials to protect the product and contribute to environmental conservation. This attention to detail and quality has not gone unnoticed, as evidenced by the series' recent accolade.

The Noto Series' design excellence was recognized at the Unicera Fair in November 2023, and it went on to clinch the Bronze A' Design Award in the Bathroom Furniture and Sanitary Ware Design category in 2024. This award celebrates the series' creative ingenuity and its embodiment of best practices in art, science, and technology. Noto's award-winning design not only enhances the user's quality of life but also advocates for a better, more sustainable world.

Orka Design Team, led by Sezgin Aksu, has overcome the challenge of maximizing storage and functionality in limited spaces without sacrificing aesthetic appeal. The Noto Series, with its soft edges, dynamic stance, and sturdy metal construction, is a prime example of design innovation that meets the demands of modern living. It is a collection that promises to bring a touch of Sicilian charm to the intimate space of the bathroom, while also standing as a symbol of design excellence and environmental responsibility.
