Paini Puts Some Flex Into Their Futuristic Faucet
When I did the first walkthrough of my current apartment, I failed to notice that the kitchen sink does not have a separate spray hose. The digs are nice but that would have been a dealbreaker! Paini has the right idea though with their Hybrid I-KIC faucet. As you can see in the tantalizing image above, it has a flexible base, so you can get a direct stream of water where you need it. Plus, it features an LED illuminated dial that gives you an idea of the water temperature through color changes. No word on pricing, but products that combine style and functionality never come cheap. More » -

Elettronico Faucet: Touchscreen Controls, Connects to a Plumbing Network
We are only talking about a sink here, but I must admit that I am a sucker for a captivating design. That having been said, the Elettronico Faucet by Carlo Frattini definitely caught my eye. The allure of the system centers around an LCD display that can be used to turn the faucet on and off, control flow rate, temperature and even other faucets / showers in the house. Essentially, the Elettronico would be part of a plumbing network that would give you command over everything from one screen. It is the most exciting thing to happen to pipes since...uh, wait. Nevermind. Unfortunately, there is no word on pricing or availability at the moment. More » -

We are in the midst of a sink design Renaissance folks—crazy new designs seem to pop up all the time. The latest comes to us via Graff in a form that bears more than a passing resemblance to a samurai sword. Plus, the faucet itself is 3 feet tall, so I wouldn't be surprised if visitors to your bathroom linger a bit admiring this masterpiece of plumbing. You even have the option of wall mounting the handles depending on which style you prefer. [Graff via HDF] -

Automatic Cat Faucet is One DIY Hack That Felines Will Love
Luckily, my cat was always too dumb to make the connection between the faucet and fresh water, so she's made do thus far with just sipping from her water dish. But I've heard that once kitties taste from the tap, they never want to go back. For running water addicted cats, MAKE contributor tsruzik has constructed a pretty ingenious automatic cat faucet using an IR sensor and some tubing. More » -

Hidden Tap Faucet Changes Temp When You Move Your Hands Side-to-Side
This lovely faucet uses a sensor to follow your hands as you move underneath it. As you move them from left to right, the water increases in temperature, enabling you to control how hot the water is by placing your hands on one side or the other. It's pretty awesome. Hit the jump for a video of it in action. More » -

Water Ball Ripple Sink Makes Me Want to Tinkle
If we were handy enough to build our own sinks, we'd build one exactly like this "The Ripple" faucet, designed by Smith Newnam, which equates relative ball movement to the temperature and amount of water flowing out. Hot water makes the LED glow red, while cold makes it glow blue, and the two hot and cold channels mix together in the open air to make for your desired temperature. Awesome? Definitely. Practical? Not so much. Just try moving that ball around without accidentally touching the scorching water. [Flickr via Yanko Design] More » -

iSave Faucet Water Counter for your Green Conscience
The iSave is a rather simple gadget that has just clinched the runner-up prize in Metropolis Magazine's 2007 Next Generation Awards. Attach it to either your sink or a showerhead and it will show you just how much water you are using for your morning's ablutions/scrubbing last night's taco melt off your plates. Designed by Reamon Yu, it's not going to save any water, but it will make you conscious of just how much is used/wasted, and hopefully will push you to further reduce your consumption. More » -

Yeah, we've shown you a couple LED faucets before, but this one is different.
