A balance between familiar and new: Vaia from Dornbracht is now also available for the kitchen
Iserlohn, 25 July 2023
Vaia from Dornbracht is also available for the kitchen, as of now. The series of fittings created by Sieger Design stands for harmony, and combines a traditional design language with progressive elements. Its fine lines and flowing transitions are fully in keeping with the Transitional Style – and it is stylistically assured in the setting of the new “Metropolitan Eclecticism” architecture.
A real highlight: the bridge mixer
A wide-ranging product programme is available, covering many areas of application: Vaia as a single-lever mixer, for instance, can have both a pull-down function and a rinsing spray on the side. The American style bridge mixer will be the highlight in any kitchen: It is available either as a three-hole variant with a pull-down function, or as a two-hole version with a rinsing spray on the side – both come with either a teardrop-shaped lever, or the classic cross-handles. A Bar Tap and a Pot Filler complete the series.
Eleven different finishes, including the new Dark Chrome as well as the Champagne (22kt Gold) finish in brushed or glossy, add refinement to the Dornbracht design fitting. The warm, golden hue is captivating, particularly when combined with natural materials and colours. By contrast, Dark Chrome has an understated, timeless elegance that is truly impressive.
“Metropolitan Eclecticism”: a combination of different stylistic influences
With its soft radii and delicate spout, Vaia represents a balanced design language that is always receptive to anything new. It is fully committed to the Transitional Style: an interior design trend that combines past and present, and skilfully strikes a balance in a game of opposites. The Dornbracht fitting creates a harmonious ambience, especially in open plan kitchen and living rooms that reflect the urban spirit of the metropolis, and effectively combine different stylistic influences.
This is also true for the new “Metropolitan Eclecticism” architecture. Here the open-plan kitchen acts as the focal point of life together, where favourite recipes are cooked, and culinary experiments as well as lively discussions take place. The freestanding island and bar stool design mixes a modern country house style with contemporary elements: Kitchen wallpaper, varnished wood, and natural stone, together with stainless steel and geometric shapes, create a pleasant, sociable atmosphere. Vaia is quite at home here, and both the warm gold Brushed Durabrass (23kt Gold) and elegant Brushed Dark Platinum finishes are equally convincing – as they show innovative ways to combine tradition and modernity.
