Land+Living: Newform Sophistication

Kitchen — August 22, 2005 Posted by Deborah

Engineering simplicity in faucet design

When designing a kitchen every decision can be agonizing and time consuming, so why complicate things? Sometimes simplicity rules, and in this regard Newform faucets stand out. Newform pares down the faucet to its most basic form, and then exploits the angles with details that are conspicuously constructivist. Handles that operate left to right instead of back to front, and spouts that jut out at 90 degrees are just some of the differences between Newform and the competition.

Keep in mind that this is not your hardware store variety faucet, but then again the price-point isn't either and may be a little difficult to track down in some areas. Newform is a manufacturer that does not rely on embellishment to sell their products, but rather focuses on the engineering, a process that produces simple and elegant designs.

Newform faucets

We just installed a newform faucet in our new kitchen and we love it. We looked at a lot of faucets, knowing that a large gooseneck with a pull-out sprayhead was what we wanted. The Newform one was the only one without embellishment. It is stunning and works very well.

Where to find Newform?

Thanks for your comment, Amy. I live in San Francisco, and am considering purchasing a kitchen faucet. How did you find a Newform dealer?

I bought 2 years ago and it is now leaking where the lever or handle it. I emailed Newform for fix or warranty information. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy using and love the beauty of this faucet.

Newform MIRAGE KN 1640

Newform MIRAGE KN 1640 I am looking for a cartridge for the kitchen fitting, Newform MIRAGE KN 1640. The brochure accompanying the kitchen tap indicates that the cartridge is Order No. 128. If you do not have this item in stock, could you please provide me with an address (street or email) of a company in Canada which carries your product. Thank you

need a cartridge

I love this faucet, but need a new cartridge because it is leaking. I'm looking for a dealer in Chicago. The place I bought it has gone out of business. Help! Dianne

Warranty Information

I have a newform 4077 shower system and a hole on top of the shower head just developed. What is the warranty period and who needs to be contacted to exchange/replace shower head?
