Bridge Faucets: Traditional Design Reimagined for Today’s Kitchen
Bridge faucets have always been known for their unique construction and refined extravagance. But recently, this bold and timeless design has seen a lot of updates that reimagine the style with modern details and functionality. First appearing at the turn of the 20th century, the bridge faucet design has been characterized by the exposed horizontal bar that connects the hot and cold water lines. By exposing this functional part of the fixture that is usually hidden under the sink, bridge faucets leave more space for detailed ornamentation.
As a result, these 2-handle faucets often serve as dramatic kitchen centerpieces. The broad outline created by the horizontal bar makes them a natural pairing for Farmhouse-Style Kitchen Sinks, which have become increasingly popular over the last few years. Though classically inspired, today’s bridge faucets incorporate new technologies and contemporary design elements that make them an ideal choice for the modern kitchen.
