Here at Remodelista, we’re drawn to objects designed by architects. Whether it’s flatware, dinnerware, or large-scale sofas, bringing an exacting design to the things we interact with on a daily basis makes for happier domestic experience. Proportions are perfected, ergonomics are considered, and materials are of the best quality. Here, we profile the best kitchen (and a few bath) faucets thoughtfully designed by architects.
Above: Designed by Italian architect Antonio Citterio for Hansgrohe, the Axor Citterio 2-Hole Kitchen Faucet has a pull-down spray; $560.16 at Quality Bath. Above: A design classic, the Vola KV1 Mixer, made for the kitchen or the bath, was first designed by Danish architect Arne Jacobsen in the midcentury. The faucet is $1,567.50 at Quality Bath.
