Kitchen Faucet Ideas
It's easy to get caught up in the big things when you're remodeling your kitchen (Granite countertops or a laminate? Tile flooring or a vinyl pattern? New kitchen appliances or make do with the old ones? Rip out the cabinets or just refinish them?), but you'll want to pay attention to the little things, too, so that your kitchen is a complete package. And that includes finding a faucet that matches your sink and the rest of the kitchen. In order to give you some ideas, here are a few pictures of faucets from around the Web:
This wall-mounted faucet from Vola is an option if you're trying to save space or just don't like the sink-top models. To the left of the faucet are the hot and cold water mixers, while to the right is a handy soap magnet, if you use bar soap in the kitchen (I like the liquid stuff myself).
This handsome faucet is from Sonoma Forge and might go with the wave sink from the same company. It's available in copper (pictured) or nickel.
The Odeon kitchen faucet from Waterworks foregoes spigots and sports a simple lever for controlling hot and cold water. The end of the faucet pulls out so you can direct the spray. This one is available in chrome or matte nickel.
And, of course, we can't forget the faucet with the embedded LED light (for those of you who like to do dishes in the dark). The Eve faucet from KWC (which is available with or without the LED) can install with the lever on the right or the left side and is made from your choice of low-lead brass or stainless steel construction.
