Semiotics is extremely important for designers. Because every work that a designer who has mastered Semiotics will create is created with the awareness of creating the desired emotion in the target audience he wants to reach. The purpose of this design is to show the strength of the relationship between two people on the form together with the function. With the use of ceramics, a fluid and elegant appearance is achieved, while a passionate relationship is sculpted. The washbasin design has been transformed into an aesthetic object with functionality.
