Scoop®ED washbasin by Minosa™ - Modern Corian Hand Basin



Organically formed to provoke evolutionary change in bathing habits, the Scoop®ED washbasin by Minosa™ is a timeless bathroom design piece that exudes a modern style. The quality craftsmanship of this washbasin is evident in every detail from the meticulous selection of material, Corian® to the beautiful way the horizontal and vertical surfaces are seamlessly wrapped & grain matched.

Evoke, Provoke & Evolve!

Minosa™ wanted to push the boundaries of the Modern Luxury Bathroom market by producing a collection of washbasins that questioned all the residential & commercial bathroom market thought was normal! The “big idea” was to dramatically reduce the depth of the basin therefore pushing the market (that was willing to evolve) to question their habits. By reducing the bowl capacity you effectively have to reduce the flow rate coming from the spout in order to prevent splashing. Effectively reducing your water consumption by around 15 thousand litres per year!! The Scoop®ED washbasin will retain 1.4L of water which Minosa considers to be more than enough for people to perform their daily habits such as shaving & face washing.



Away from the water saving qualities of this modern washbasin we also wanted a material that had outstanding environmental qualities. We chose to utilize Corian® as it meets with all of our requirements. Being 100% renewable & having such a range of colours made it the obvious choice for our design team.


The Scoop®ED washbasin has a great range of options; two sizes 900 & 1200 with the option of having the bowls located in the centre, right hand or left hand side. There will also be a double version in two sizes 1600 & 1800mm coming in the very near future.


The Scoop®ED washbasin is a shining example of quality Handcrafted Australian design. Every piece from the Minosa™ collection is hand made to order locally here in Sydney.

Modern modular interior house design with minimalist style

Keep the natural environment of your home in mind while decorating it. You can start with the architectural approach. However, remember to opt for décor that gels well with the surroundings. For example, a casual country decoration that uses checks, floral, cotton, linen, and other cheerful colors, is apt for cottages. A contemporary and minimalist design that allows for a feeling of open space, relaxation, and comfort, the luxurious residence is much more pleasant than you would expect because it is crafted to maximize the spacial feel it emanates. With alabaster white walls offer a bright atmosphere, high ceilings and large glass windows that offer natural light and a breathtaking view of the entire yard, that’s a house we’d move in today.

Tips to Decorate a Small Space Bedroom

Tips to Decorate a Small Space Bedroom
Many bedrooms have limited space, which makes decorating easy in some ways and difficult in others. Taking a fresh design approach can transform a crowded bedroom. Such as decorate a small space on bathroom, here are several tips on decorating a small space bedroom for your family and especially for your kids.
  • Look under furniture for extra storage space; a good under-bed organizer can help keep toys, shoes and other goods hidden from view and better-organized.
  • Go vertical; when floor space is limited, one of the easiest ways to maximize space utilization is to use every inch of vertical space.
  • Create an illusion of more space by painting stripes on the walls; vertical stripes give the room a sense of greater height while horizontal stripes will make the room seem wider.
Tips to Decorate a Small Space Bedroom
  • Don’t place tall furniture near windows; this only blocks the natural light. Do place a low bookcase or, better yet, a chair or bench near the window.
  • A corner bookcase or display shelf unit can be a great way to utilize diagonal nooks and crannies in your smaller-sized kids’ bedroom.
Tips to Decorate a Small Space Bedroom
  • Look for “combo” furniture pieces such as an armoire with drawers and space for hanging clothes to free up closet space.
  • A well-lit bedroom will seem more open and spacious than a dark room; augment the ceiling light fixture with a bedside table lamp, desk lamp, etc. to provide plenty of ambient and task lighting in your child’s bedroom.
  • Keep it simple; more than anything a small kids’ bedroom will suffer greatly if you try to overdo a theme, use too many colors and cram in just plain too much stuff. --raftertales--

Interior Design Project of Vagg Residence

Interior Design Project of Vagg ResidenceMatt Gibson has a creative hand to create a beautiful interior project, such as his project on this project, an interior design project of Vagg Residence. This project involved the sub-division and renovation of a semi-detached Victorian bluestone cottage with an individual heritage listing. The client purchased this property with pre-existing Planning & Building permits to sub-divide the site and construct two 2 storey precast- concrete dwellings over 2 property Titles.

The existing site contained a 19th century derelict bluestone fronted Victorian Cottage residence that was severely run down. A Special Heritage Overlay was placed over the front bluestone bedroom that fronts Highett Street. The brief meant dealing with from one end - the notion of a 2-storey utilitarian pre-cast concrete box normally common place in multi-res / high rise construction, versus at the other end a now Heritage Listed single storey bluestone cottage front. A decision was made to restore the interior of the existing construct in a clean but typically Victorian detailing, whilst the interior of the new pre-cast construct contains a newly inscribed contemporary architecture - open, light filled, flexible.
