That is some impressive fuckuppery!

Someone probably removed the flow cartridge since they didn’t like the pressure it had. Now this. They are just a plastic “filter” where the water comes out, easy to remove.

Things that can only happen in commercial buildings, because if it happened in your house you wouldn't tolerate it.

Seems to have a valve at the wall, they should turn that down so it doesn't do this anymore

Boy hostile design, though one could be fooled into thinking it, as this is near criminally insane stupid design instead

Instead of replacing the defective sink, they added a sink to the ground!

yes let's wet our hands with basin splashback water, smear it all over, splash some back down, and let it culture.

My sink effectively was kind of like this. If you turn the faucet on all the way, which is hard to not do in practice, literally every single time, due to how the drain is oriented, it splashed water out of the sink. I would call that worse than mildly infuriating and it's way better than this situation. I had to turn the water supply valves way down to prevent it. It's not ideal but helps a lot.

I'll never understand how people lived in this house for 15 years before I did and were fine with water splashing out 100 times a day.

Just get a different faucet, that sink is criminally small but would be more expensive to replace.

My theory: Someone purchased the sink and faucet separately likely at a discount, and either ignored the issue or wasn’t informed after install.

Thank goodness that trashcan is there to help catch all that water, and the drain on the floor as a backup, in case anything is missed.

What’s the problem? It’s just an infinity sink.

It's a feature, not a bug. It cleans the floor as well as ur hand. Neat! /j
