The conceptually designed sink features three [nesting metal layers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/volta-1) that allow you to customize the [depth of the sink](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/archiplan-compact-basin-collection) in order to only use as much space as you require for a specific task.

The 'Lifting Sink' is the design work of Chengyong Li, Lei Yang, Sian Lin and Peishan He. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.8/10 - Popularity: 64% | Activity: 41% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Adjustable Sinks:** The 'Lifting Sink' is a prime example of the trend towards adjustable and customizable sink designs, offering users the ability to modify the depth of the sink to suit their specific needs. - **Space Optimization:** The concept of adjustable depth sinks addresses the growing trend of space optimization in homes and businesses, allowing users to maximize function and utility in limited spaces. - **Water Conservation:** The 'Lifting Sink' taps into the trend of water conservation by allowing users to adjust the sink's depth, thereby reducing the amount of water needed for different tasks and minimizing waste. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Home Improvement:** The adjustable depth sink concept presents an opportunity for the home improvement industry to offer innovative products that cater to the needs of homeowners looking to optimize space and customize their sinks. - **Interior Design:** Interior designers can incorporate adjustable sinks into their projects, providing clients with versatile and functional solutions while enhancing the overall aesthetic appeal of the space. - **Plumbing & Fixture Manufacturing:** Manufacturers in the plumbing and fixture industry can develop and market adjustable depth sinks as a disruptive product that addresses the demand for flexible and sustainable solutions in residential and commercial spaces. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Reinventive Modern Kitchen Sinks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxury-kitchen.md) - [Tech-Equipped Kitchen Sinks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxury-kitchen-sink.md) - [Angular Ceramic Sink Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/angle-washbasin.md) - [Elegant Kitchen Sink Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kitchen-sink-system.md) - [Collaborative Seashell-Like Sinks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spire-washbasin.md) - [Refined Dishwasher Faucets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grifoa-sliding-faucet.md) - [Illuminated Base Bathroom Sinks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/antoniolupi-albumelux.md) - [Ultra-Modern Freestanding Sinks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/freestanding-sink.md) - [Dual-Use Ceramic Basins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luneup.md)
