The next time you're travelling and feel as if you brought everything but the kitchen sink, you can actually bring the wash bin with you with this portable sink. From Ceramica Olympia, My Bag is a sink designed to look like a suitcase. Poking fun at those who do not understand the meaning of packing light, the series of collapsible washbasins help you avoid using the hotel or hostel's facilities. It could also come in handy while camping.
The portable sink line is a real one, but was also created as a commentary for people who cannot go one day without home comforts and what they deem to be 'essentials.' The tongue in cheek design can be previewed online.
