Zaha Hadid Quadro
British-Iraqi architect Zaha Hadid is better known for her architectural works but here, she’s applied her unique flair to the design of a tap for Triflow. Besides the usual twists and turns for domestic hot and cold water, the tap features hot and cold filtered water at the touch of a button. At around £7000 the Triflow Quadro TF-KTQ 808 is very much a special order. Hadid’s contribution also helps raise the profile of Triflow’s anti bottled water campaign: Back to the Tap.
