Imitation Is The Greatest Form of Flattery, But There Can Only Be One Original Axor Starck

Axor -- Interior Design, 5/3/2011 11:23:41 AM

Axor StarckFounded in 1901, Hansgrohe is the leading brand for bathroom and kitchen fixtures, and a market leader in shower, thermostat, pressure balance and ceramic cartridge technology. Axor, the designer brand of the Hansgrohe Company, epitomizes the best in luxury shower, bath and kitchen products. A global pioneer with roots in Germany's Black Forest, Axor is passionate about water and committed to innovation, performance, quality and exceptional design. By thinking beyond individual products, the designer brand is dedicated to developing solutions for the ever-evolving definition of the bathroom. According to Philippe Grohe, Axor brand manager, "We promote creativity and innovative concepts and perpetually push ourselves beyond function by imagining the future of the bathroom. We envision the bath as living space and a place to incorporate each individual's specific preferences, needs and styles."

 

Axor collaborates exclusively with the world's top architects and designers. In 1994, Philippe Starck designed his first collection for the brand - Axor Starck. A visionary, Starck redefined the bath as a "Salon d'eau" - a relaxing retreat drenched in natural light, warm materials and uncompromising modernity. The Axor Starck single - hole faucet is one of the icons of the collection and is the first faucet with a joystick-like lever. While many have tried to imitate its look (it's one of the most copied pieces on the market today), the original Axor Starck is renowned for its simplicity and classic minimalist design. It is emblematic of Starck's elegant and modern aesthetic and has set the standard for luxury in the bathroom. Available in chrome or brushed nickel, it features a no clog aerator and a low flow rate of 1.5 GPM. The faucet is also ADA compliant and WaterSense certified. It is the perfect fit for the most ambitious projects - from custom residential to large-scale commercial. For a limited time, the Axor Starck single-hole faucet will be available at a special price.
