Antonio Lupi RIGATINO Freestanding Marble Basin with Wood Base

Antonio Lupi Rigatino: A Masterclass in Tactile Luxury

The Rigatino freestanding basin is a sophisticated study in contrasts. Designed by AL Studio, it moves away from the traditional smooth surfaces of the bathroom and embraces texture and touch. By pairing the weight and permanence of natural stone with the warmth and rhythm of fluted wood, the Rigatino creates a “furniture-like” feel that transforms a functional bathroom into a curated sanctuary.

The Rigatino is currently on display in our Mascot showroom, where you can experience its unique textures in person.

The Beauty of the “Rigato” (Fluted) Detail

The name Rigatino refers to the vertical milling (ribbing) of the base. This fluted wood design is one of the most significant trends in contemporary interior design:

  • Rhythmic Texture: The vertical lines create a play of light and shadow, making the base appear slender and architectural.

  • Hand-Finished Precision: Each wooden slat is meticulously finished to ensure a seamless, continuous wrap around the cylindrical base.

  • Warmth & Softness: The wood base breaks the “coldness” of a typical bathroom, making the space feel more like a high-end living area.

Solid Stone Craftsmanship

Sitting atop the rhythmic base is a generous basin carved from premium natural marble or solid surface.

  • Architectural Balance: The heavy, solid presence of the basin provides a grounding contrast to the light, vertical lines of the base.

  • Integrated Design: The transition between the basin and the pedestal is invisible, creating a monolithic, sculptural appearance that looks beautiful from every angle (ideal for central room placement).

Why it’s the Designer’s Choice for 2026

If you are looking to move away from the “all-white” or “minimalist-glass” look, the Rigatino offers:

  1. Organic Modernism: Fits perfectly with the current trend of using natural timbers and stones.

  2. Powder Room Impact: Because it is freestanding, it frees up wall space, allowing for floor-to-ceiling mirrors or bold wallpaper to take center stage.

  3. Acoustic Softness: The textured wood surface helps dampen the echoes often found in tiled bathrooms.
