Appropriately named the 'Marrakesh Sink', this home accessory is inspired by the city's vibrant colors and ethnic architecture. Kohler's Morrocan sink design boasts a traditional blue and white pattern and is crafted out of porcelain materials. In addition to its stunning [sink bowl design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/piano-washbasin), it also features a [decorative faucet](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kohler-billet) that is reminiscent of fine china. When turned on, the faucet looks like a porcelain fountain and is adorned with the same [blue and white motifs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pearlized) that can be seen on the sink itself. If you're a fan of bohemian design or the owner of an extravagant home, you're sure to appreciate this home fixture that is priced at a $1250 rate. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.1/10 - Popularity: 37% | Activity: 49% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Kitchen](https://www.trendhunter.com/kitchen) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Ethnic-inspired Design:** Opportunity for businesses to create products that celebrate and incorporate art and motifs from diverse cultures in innovative ways. - **Fusion of Traditional and Contemporary:** Potential for companies to merge elements of traditional craftsmanship with modern design aesthetics, creating unique and visually appealing products. - **Luxury Home Fixtures:** Market demand for high-end, luxurious home accessories presents an opportunity for brands to offer premium and visually striking products. ### Who This Affects Most - **Home Decor:** The home decor industry can explore the incorporation of ethnic-inspired designs into a range of products such as furniture, lighting, and textiles. - **Bathroom Fixtures:** Innovative companies in the bathroom fixtures industry can develop sinks, faucets, and other fixtures that blend traditional motifs with contemporary design elements. - **Artisan Crafts:** Artisan crafts industries can tap into the demand for unique, handcrafted products by creating decorative pieces inspired by traditional motifs from different cultures. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Reinventive Modern Kitchen Sinks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxury-kitchen.md) - [Textural Bathroom Sink Basins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/washbasin-collection.md) - [Electric Kiln-Made Unique Sinks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/volta-1.md) - [Ultra-Modern Freestanding Sinks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/freestanding-sink.md) - [Dynamic Marble Sink Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/infinito.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) - [Tech-Equipped Kitchen Sinks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxury-kitchen-sink.md) - [Slick Bathroom Sinks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/slick-bathroom-sink.md)
