Kitchen & Bathroom Taps

Anticipation building, you’re itching to get going on your next home upgrade project – it’s a biggie – the bathroom AND kitchen, and there’s a lot to think about to get it feeling just right! Taps are an often overlooked detail when revamping these rooms. Usually, we go with the easy option – the one on display with the bath, sink or basin. Often not even realising there are so many options to choose from now – shape, style and even colour. But taps are an integral part of everyday life. Considering how often you rinse, clean, wash your hands, the dishes, fruit and veggies, or fill a glass with water, it’s easy to appreciate how having well-designed, stunning kitchen and bathroom taps can change how you feel about interacting with them.

Imagine reaching to turn the tap on to do the washing up for the hundredth time in a day. Your fingertips grasp the cool metal and delight in the smoothness against your skin – slowly turning the tap on, listening for the whoosh of hot water, watching as it gushes from the tap and bubbles gloriously into the sink below. The way your senses react to something beautiful instead of something purely functional can transform the most mundane tasks, bringing joy to doing the dishes.

Relaxing in the bathtub, you gaze at your serene bathroom, catching a glint of light bouncing from your elegant gold tap sitting atop your basin like a piece of statement jewellery. Finding the fixture that you knew would be ‘the one’ at first sight felt daunting at the time, especially with so many options available, but you’re glad that you kept searching for the right one.

Kitchen and bathroom taps come in all kinds of attractive shapes, sizes and colours, which means you might have to do a bit of exploring to find the right one for you. The one that makes your heart sing. Match the finish of your bathroom tap to your shower and cabinet handles to create a flowing, harmonious sanctuary to rival the most lavish of boutique hotel bathrooms. If you have a smaller bathroom, maybe consider a wall-mounted tap to make the most of the surface space you do have, and if you’ve got a larger bathroom, why not go all out with a tall feature basin tap.

Of course, you don’t have to be doing a complete renovation to change your taps – it’s an easy job to do with the right tools and a bit of know-how. Swapping a grotty dull kitchen tap for something more ‘you’ could be the start of a whole new look for your room. Go classic with satin gold or silver, a little braver with black or white or… If you fancy a walk on the wild side, check out our lush Miami Pink and Neo Mint green taps!
