Blanco Cinder

If you haven’t seen it yet, you should check out Blanco‘s newest color for their Siligranit II sinks – Cinder

The Cinder colorway has a dark gray, natural, stone-like appearance that gives the Silgranit II sinks the ability to stand out and be a stunning companion to a wide range of countertop colors and materials.

Made of 80% rock-hard granite, the Silgranit II sinks never fade, resist scratches, heat, food acids and impact. They also have an impermeable Hygienic+Plus surface that is proven to act as a shield to dirt and bacteria, making it safe for food prep.

Shown on the Modex sink, the 3″ edge makes a dramatic statement in any kitchen.

New Axor Faucets

Axor continues to add to its collection of high-design kitchen and bath fittings with beautiful creations from Philippe Starck and Antonio Citterio.

Axor Starck Kitchen:

The company has added three new designs to its Starck Kitchen line: HighArc, Prep, and Bar faucets, all available in chrome or steel optik finishes. The 17-1/2-inch-high HighArc faucet has a pull-down handle and 2 spray options.

The line’s pot fillers add versatility with wall- and deck-mounted versions. All faucets in the line have ceramic cartridges and swivel spouts.

Axor Citterio Kitchen:

Citterio has designed a new faucet and two pot fillers. The Citterio M 2-Hole Kitchen Faucet has an M2 ceramic cartridge and pull-down spray head integrated with Hansgrohe’s QuickClean technology that helps resist lime scale formation. Its swivel spout comes with an optional extension set.

Like the Starck collection, the pot fillers are available in wall- or deck-mounted designs, and all three elements in the line come in chrome or steel optic finishes.

Hot and Cold

In April 2013 you will be able to get the New GE Café™ French Door refrigerator that will be able to dispense both chilled and hot water.

A refrigerator that heats water is an industry first. GE offers a unique solution for homeowners who don’t have much cabinet space under the sink for a hot water dispenser.

The dispense is not an Instant Hot. You will have to wait a few minutes according to GE. Four pre-programmed options will be available from the door panel or you can select a custom temperature.

Since the dispenser opening is large enough to set a mug and walk away, I can see how this might appeal to a busy mom who wants to steep her tea while she’s getting her children off to school in the morning.

Duravit Kitchen Sinks

Have you seen Duravit Kitchen Sinks lately?

New kitchen sinks from Duravit come in a large scale with the sink and drain area in almost equal proportion. The Kiora, available in white, pergamon, chestnut, matt anthracite and black ceramic is a favorite new pick. The Kiora Z is an ideal choice for homes with right and left-handed users.

“Unadorned and architectural, the Kiora kitchen sink
has exactly what it takes to become a classic”

Due to the success of the Vero bathroom sink, Duravit created their kitchen version that is clean and architectural in its lines. The Vero comes in three widths but all sinks come 17 1/2″ deep. If you are tall this you may feel some strain on your back in you undermount this sink in a standard height kitchen cabinet.
