W+W Roca

Formas delicadas y tecnología innovadora por fin se combinan en beneficio del avance sostenible. La nueva W+W es la suma de elementos indispensables para ahorrar agua y espacio. Porque su sistema renovador filtra el agua del lavamanos para reutilizarla en la descarga de la cisterna. Y porque su diseño exclusivo en forma de “L” sintetiza en un único cuerpo lo que hasta hoy era impensable, consiguiendo libertad de movimientos. Un cruce de caminos entre sofisticación y amor al planeta.

Delicate lines and innovative technology finally come together in the cause of sustainable progress. The new W+W is the sum of its indispensible parts for saving water and space. Its refill system filters the basin's water for reuse in the flush cistern. And because its exclusive L-shaped design forms a previously-unthinkable single body, it provides great freedom of movement. A matchless fusion of sophistication and love for the planet.

The Cooper Union Institute for Sustainable Design

The Cooper Union Institute for Sustainable Design was created in the Spring of 2009 with initial funding from The Jack Rudin Foundation. The Institute seeks to provide the greater Cooper Union community—architects, engineers and artists—with the cross-disciplinary knowledge and skills that are necessary to create a sustainable society. We define a “sustainable society” as one that prospers because its economy, social practices, physical infrastructure and engineering systems all work in harmony with the ecological dynamics and resource limitations of the earth. The Institute engages in a mutually enlightening dialogue with larger intellectual and civic communities in order to foster a greater understanding of sustainability principles and practices throughout our society.
