A kitchen sink is being redesigned for a cooking routine in which a phone is often as close at hand as a knife or a recipe book. Germany Brilliant Sanitaryware has introduced the GBVST38A-MB, a multifunctional sink equipped with a phone holder and a range of work-area accessories.
The phone holder is intended for users who follow recipes, watch cooking videos, or listen to audio while preparing food. It allows the device to be placed near the sink without requiring a separate stand.
More Than a Washing Station
The GBVST38A-MB combines its phone holder with a flexible faucet offering several spray modes. It also includes hot and cold water controls to accommodate different washing needs.
Other supplied components include a glass washer, a knife-draining section, and additional supporting accessories. Together, these elements are designed to turn the space around the basin into a more organised working area.
| Component | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Phone holder | Holds a phone for recipes, videos, or audio content |
| Flexible faucet | Provides several spray modes |
| Water controls | Supports hot and cold water use |
| Work accessories | Includes a glass washer and knife-draining section |
The product reflects a shift in how the sink area is used in modern kitchens. Rather than serving only for washing dishes, the area can support food preparation and digital cooking habits at the same time.
Developed With Practical Kitchen Input
Actor and entrepreneur Christian Sugiono collaborated with Germany Brilliant Sanitaryware in developing the product. The process, from the initial concept to the selection of features, took about two years.
His involvement was shaped by his interest in cooking and his everyday experience using a kitchen. Mediaindonesia.com reported that his input focused on practical requirements when users are working close to the sink.
At the launch, Christian said he had been involved in the development process for about two years. He also noted that people increasingly bring phones into the kitchen to access recipes, videos, music, podcasts, and religious content.
The placement of the accessories is intended to respond to that behaviour without adding clutter around the sink. The design seeks to make the washing and preparation area more useful within the available kitchen space.
Material and Long-Term Care
The Kitchen Sink Multifungsi uses a material referred to as Brilliant Granite. The company says the material is highly durable, resistant to stains and chemicals, and easier to clean.
Material selection matters because the sink is used for more than tableware. It may also be used to wash vegetables, fruit, and meat, making routine cleaning an important part of maintaining hygiene.
Christian advised consumers not to focus on price alone when choosing a sink. Basin size, material durability, ease of maintenance, and available accessories should be matched to the size and needs of the kitchen.
The GBVST38A-MB was launched at IndoBuildTech 2026 at ICE BSD City in Tangerang on Wednesday, July 8, 2026. Its introduction underscores an effort to combine sanitation, space efficiency, and digital-era kitchen habits in one fixture.
