Introduction to the Collection
Brizo has recently unveiled its new Frank Lloyd Wright® Kitchen Collection, a magnificent homage to one of America's architectural giants. This collection highlights a seamless blend of innovation, artistry, and respect for nature. As an evolution of earlier offerings, this kitchen series is set to redefine culinary spaces by incorporating natural aesthetics and functional design expertly.
Inspiration and Design Philosophy
The new collection is inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright's philosophy that architecture should coexist harmoniously with the natural environment. This fundamental idea is evident throughout the collection, which boldly marries purpose with elegance. Each piece honors six guiding principles of Wright's design approach: simplicity, belonging, substance, individuality, palette, and integrity.
Customarily known for his organic architecture, Wright's influence shapes the collection's aesthetic. The innovative geometry of faucet silhouettes, combined with the rich textures of materials, presents a modern perception of his immersive design heritage. As Chris Wilson, the Category Manager for Brizo, stated, "We weren't just inspired by Wright's work; we were challenged by it," highlighting the drive to push the boundaries of kitchen design through this collection.
Features and Materials
A key feature of the Frank Lloyd Wright® Kitchen Collection is its unique handle materials, which include glass and concrete. These materials reflect Wright's core principle of substance by celebrating the tactile beauty of raw elements. The collection introduces various distinctive finishes and combinations, such as the sophisticated Brilliance® Black Onyx/Wood and the luxurious Brilliance® Luxe Gold®/Wood, allowing for personalized stylistic expression.
In total, the collection comprises seven core products:
- - Pull-Down Kitchen Faucet (available with optional SmartTouch® Technology)
- - Pull-Down Prep Kitchen Faucet
- - Bar Faucet
- - Instant Hot Faucet
- - Beverage Faucet
- - Pot-Filler
- - Soap Dispenser
Each product is meticulously designed to emulate the organic geometric shapes that are synonymous with Wright’s architecture. From the rounded arches to angular forms, the collection offers kitchen solutions that marry functionality with artistic flair, challenging the conventional standards of kitchen design.
Customization and Versatility
Brizo's commitment to customization is a hallmark of this collection. The handles are available in various configurations, including options for Finish Match, Wood Inlay, and Concrete Inlay. The glass and concrete handles, meticulously crafted to capture the raw aesthetic of traditional architecture, further allow homeowners and designers to curate their individual space. With ten signature finishes to choose from, this collection aims to adapt to various design preferences, whether as a striking centerpiece or a subtle complement to an existing décor.
