SINCERE: A Growing Bathroom Space Product

Combining Functionality and Playfulness for Kids

The SINCERE bathroom vanity, designed by Yang Mingbin, is a unique and innovative solution that caters to both adults and children. Inspired by the needs of his own child, Mingbin recognized the inconvenience that standard bathroom vanities posed for kids. With the aim of creating a design that promotes a sense of presence and symbiosis within the home, the SINCERE vanity offers a versatile and adaptable space for children to use.

The core strength of the SINCERE design lies in its minimalist combination of functionality. Understanding that children grow and change over time, Mingbin has integrated the vanity top with an exclusive wash space for children. As children grow taller, this wash space can be transformed into a storage area, ensuring that the product can adapt to the changing needs of the family.

Made using a combination of stone, wood, and paint plate, the SINCERE vanity showcases the designer's attention to detail and commitment to quality. With dimensions of 1500mm x 350mm x 585mm, this bathroom cabinet offers ample storage space while maintaining a sleek and modern aesthetic.

The SINCERE vanity goes beyond its functional aspects and aims to create a deeper connection between children and their surroundings. It acts as a growing bathroom space product, changing its functions over time and according to the needs of the family. As children grow older, the SINCERE vanity becomes their childhood buddy, fostering a sense of presence and closeness within the home.

The project, initiated in January 2018 in China, was driven by Mingbin's research on the daily actions and sense of presence of children at home. By combining the vanity top and an exclusive wash space for children, Mingbin aimed to create a design that not only meets the needs of the family but also enhances the overall experience of using the bathroom.

The SINCERE vanity presented several creative and technical challenges that Mingbin successfully overcame. By prioritizing the daily actions and sense of presence of children, he was able to create a design that seamlessly integrates functionality and playfulness. The result is a product that not only serves its purpose but also adds a touch of joy and imagination to the bathroom space.

With its unique design and thoughtful approach, the SINCERE bathroom vanity has been recognized for its excellence. In 2019, it was awarded the Bronze A' Design Award in the Bathroom Furniture and Sanitary Ware Design category. This prestigious accolade is bestowed upon designs that exhibit outstanding creativity, resourcefulness, and technical skills, contributing to quality of life improvements and making the world a better place.

The design patent for the SINCERE vanity is currently pending, further highlighting its originality and uniqueness in the market. As a testament to its success, the SINCERE vanity continues to captivate audiences with its innovative features and ability to create a harmonious and functional bathroom space for the entire family.
