The Concealed Faucet
Modern designers and manufacturers are taking the kitchen to ultra-sleek dimensions; too sleek, in fact, to be bothered with even a visible water faucet. Yet a kitchen cannot exist without water. The answer? A new wave of concealed faucet designs that somehow manage to singlehandedly reinvent the modern kitchen.
Concealed faucets as a general rule are mounted underneath the sink rather than on the countertop as most traditional faucets are. Only the handles and spout are visible within the sink. There are also a few other creative designs as well. Here are a few concealed faucet products, with links to manufacturers:
- With Absens Concealed Faucets, made by Italian manufacturer M&Z Rubinetterie, your faucet simply cannot be any more hidden. It is cunningly disguised behind a push-to-open panel.
- Chicago Faucets makes a wide range of sink faucets, including several concealed designs. With a focus primarily on commercial faucets, expect maximum functionality in design; great for the well-traveled kitchen.
- This sleek single lever concealed faucet from Rohl Bath is a sure fit in today's ultra modern homes.
- From Remodelista, here are some ultra modern examples of concealed faucet kitchen design, with links to the architects involved.
