from the Wall St Journal: "Vessel sinks aren’t sunk at all. They perch atop the vanity, joined to the countertop in a way that attracts soap buildup and toothpaste gunk. And given that the bowl sits too high, “they make for terrible face-washing and teeth-brushing experiences,” said Leah Alexander, principal of Beauty Is Abundant, a design firm in Atlanta. Water drips from hand to elbow, and kids need step stools. “I hate them,” said Rick Grafmeyer, an attorney in Washington, D.C. “I’ve had them, and I’m building a new home and would never put them there. The water ends up on the countertop.” In other words, they are stupid. #stupid #vesselsink #bowlsink

even a super tasteful London loft conversion cannot escape the stupidity of bowl sinks: in fact, they’ve doubled the stupidity

From Spain, Lars writes: This explains a lot. They came from outer space. And they are multiplying and mutating.

Lars writes: The pandemic pretty much canceled #stupidbowlsinks, but Netflix’s The One delivered via the TV screen last night. Feels good to be back!

Dave says to his friend Lars “I found a store for you in Saratoga” If I had plans to visit Saratoga, I would cancel them.

Seth sent me two photos and wrote: “Daisy tells me you collect poorly designed sinks. Here are two doozies--one of which even has a warning taped to the wall. No matter how carefully you adjust the water never ends up in the bowl, it streams onto the floor or dribbles onto the counter.” The other photo, surprisingly, was not a bowl sink, and thus outside of the remit for this Tumblr. The other sink suffered instead from a poorly placed faucet. Thank you for your contribution, Seth.

Lars writes about a Turkish bowl sink: We have all witnessed the phenomenon of the person, place, or thing whose physical attractiveness is unfortunately not matched with smarts or wisdom. Often as not, we content ourselves with observing the person, place, or thing and not worrying too much about how smart or stupid this thing is. And sometimes that’s OK. The aesthetic quality is enough.

Jeffrey writes “from the Gracia neighborhood of Barcelona. Got to regale my whole family with the concept of #stupidbowlsinks. Not sure they're on the same page . . .” We can only hope they come to their senses...
