Faucet elegance and undivided kitchen sink question...  

The recent mention of Ikea's Ensen faucet being a good design in certain respects triggered the following tangential question?

1. Why are so many kitchen sinks divided into two basins, when so many houses have dishwashers? A neighbor of mine and I, after a couple of syrahs, wanted to know. 🙂 But even the morning after, I still want to know. Divided sinks seem archaisms. First they limit the size of the objects that will fit in a sink. Second, they unecessarily increase the risk clogging the basin without the garbage disposal with gunk from dirty dishes awaiting rincing for eventual placement in a dishwasher. And if one once in a great while did need a second basin for soaking, well, a removeable plastic or metal bowl shaped to fit in half the single basin could be inserted when needed, and stored in a pantry or cabinet when not. Or in a slightly more Rube Goldberg approach, maybe some wonderfully clever designer could design a fully integrated now-its-there, now-its-not partition that unfolds into position from the bottom or side walls of the basin, and then folds back when not needed.

One sink. One faucet with no exterior nobs or moving parts but the faucet itself. Clean. Modernist. Minimalist. Functional. And the recalcitrant postmodernists can add a peanut for a handle if they must. 🙂

I usually find ideas inspired over a few glasses of wine have already been designed and are on the market somewhere. Where would my friend find such a sink and faucet?
