Modern Influences Inspire the Truly Minimal Design of the Solna Pull-down Faucet
INDIANAPOLIS – Brizo®, the faucet brand for the fashion forward, delivers its sleekest kitchen design to date with Solna®, a modern, European kitchen pull-down. Solna takes contemporary to a new level with crisp lines influenced by Scandinavian furniture and a seamless hidden pull-down wand that affords homeowners the luxury of both stream and spray settings.
“Solna was an exercise in creating a truly minimal and clean design, with exceptional sleekness,” said Judd Lord, director of industrial design for Brizo. “The Solna is riding the ever-increasing wave of prominence of the modern design trend, which, at this moment, happens to fall into the mid-century modern sphere.”
Inventive Technology
Solna features the Brizo brand’s first-ever hidden pull-down wand housed neatly inside the spout and held securely through MagneDockTM Technology, an exclusive magnetic docking system that utilizes a powerful magnet to securely lock the wand in place. Similar in functionality to magnetic closures found on totes and personal electronics cases, this magnetic connection makes the wand extremely easy to engage and disengage, without any risk of the wand slipping from the spout when not in use.
Finally, Solna incorporates a next generation DIAMOND™ valve, an integrated ceramic valve cartridge featuring one ceramic disc and one diamond-embedded ceramic disc. As the two discs move against each other, the diamond-embedded disc constantly polishes the uncoated ceramic disc, removing calcium and mineral deposits. The valve lasts up to ten times the industry standard, requires no lubrication, eliminates wear on seals, and ensures “like new” operation for life.
Care in How It’s Built
Solna is compliant with low lead legislation and will be available in Polished Chrome, Brilliance® Stainless and Brilliance® Brushed Bronze finishes in single-hole, single-handle kitchen and bar/prep configurations.

Fashion as it Relates to Design
Defining a persons style is an important part of the design process and making their house their home. A kitchen, a bathroom, a bedroom or a living room - each room of the home inside and out should reflect those that live in the home. Fashion is an integral link to ones personal style and taste and it is important to integrate that into the interior design so that the end result represents "their home".
I enjoy spending time getting to know my clients and I often discuss with them their favorite colors, what textures they like, what their favorite season is and even words that describe their likes and dislikes. I encourage clients to let me help them look outside of the box and allow me to help them to learn to live in their homes and make it accommodate their lifestyle.
With that said, I believe a person's individual fashion sense is often a clear indication of how they live. What I mean is that your home should represent who "you" are and how "you" live in your home.
It should be reflection of who you are...you can see by these examples how fashion relates to design...
