American Standard Goes Luxe: The DXV Collection - Remodelista
This is not your grandmother’s bathroom and kitchen. To create the new portfolio... ...American Standard looked to design trends of the past century as well as its own archives, which date back to the company’s founding in 1872 as a small tinwork shop in Massachusetts. Julie, Remodelista’s editor in chief, considers the pot filler over her range to be her kitchen’s greatest luxury (Michelle of Gardenista feels the same; read her Ode to the Pot Filler). A farmhouse classic updated with contemporary lines, the Orchard 36-Inch Kitchen Sink from the DXV Classic Movement could be the most versatile kitchen sink around; $1,400. The Isle Pull-Down Kitchen Faucet (part of the DXV Contemporary Movement) swivels 150 degrees and has a pull-down spout for hidden sprayer convenience. The DXV Lyndon Collection offers a full suite of bath fixtures and faucets sized for compact bathrooms... ...including the fire clay Lyndon Wall-Mount Bathroom Sink ($600) and the vitreous china Lyndon Two-Piece Elongated Dual-Flush Toilet ($650). The minimalist Percy Wall-Mounted Vessel Faucet with Cross Handles comes in brushed nickel ($707) and polished chrome ($615). DXV’s Percy Collection includes streamlined bathroom accessories, such as the Percy 24-Inch Towel Bar shown here in brushed nickel ($216). From the DXV Golden Era Movement, we like the enduring look of the Fitzgerald Collection. Pair the Fitzgerald 28-Inch Pedestal Bathroom Sink with the cast-brass Randall Widespread Bathroom Faucet with Cross Handles.
