FLEXIBLE FAUCET
 Unlike other kitchen faucets, the new Karbon faucet by Kohler will maintain the exact position a user places it in, keeping the spray head and water flow exactly where it’s desired and freeing up both hands for kitchen prep and clean-up tasks. Additionally, the faucet offers both spray and aerated water flow options, eliminating the need for a side spray. An elaborate design detail is featured in the remote joystick valve that consists of two disks of identical size installed flush with the countertop to provide an unusually sleek look and offer easy cleaning. The joints connecting the four sections of the faucet employ a novel patented technology that provides exceptional resistance to support the spout while allowing for smooth and effortless handling.

AESTHETICALLY AND ENVIRONMENTALLY SUPERIOR
 PaperStone Certified is a beautiful and heavy-duty solid surface known for its performance, warm touch, contemporary appearance and environmental sustainability. It is made from 100% post-consumer recycled paper and a proprietary, petroleum-free resin that does not contain formaldehyde. It is the only solid surface material certified by the Forest Stewardship Council, Smartwood and the Rainforest Alliance. PaperStone has been a favorite of professional restaurants for years because its non-porous surface is durable and naturally discourages bacterial growth. PaperStone is similar in price to granite or other solid surface materials, and can be machined and installed in a similar manner. Several colors are available and can be viewed on their website.

LIGHT AND FRESH AIR
 Adding one or more venting skylights to fill the room with healthful natural light and fresh air can make your kitchen more functional and an enjoyable space to spend time. Since skylights don’t take up wall space like vertical windows, more space is available for shelves or cabinets. Venting skylights can utilize their natural chimney effect to exhaust not only kitchen air but to vent volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and other indoor air pollutants from other areas of the home as well. For convenience, skylights, along with available accessories including blinds and shades, can be controlled manually or by remote control with the touch of a button.

LOOK MA – NO HANDS!
 What makes the Pascal faucet by Brizo stand out from other kitchen faucets is the fact that it was designed utilizing extensive “human factors” research. After conducting numerous experiments, Brizo discovered that people consistently left the water running when doing dishes and often used their elbows to turn the faucet handles on or off when handling foods such as raw meats. Pascal combines hands-free and touch-control technology, allowing users to seamlessly activate water flow by either “tapping” almost anywhere on the faucet or using the hands-free option, reserving both hands for cooking and clean up. For added convenience, Pascal’s high-arc pull-down spout also automatically activates and deactivates water flow. Blending stylish design and electronic functionality with environmental consciousness, Pascal is more than just a kitchen faucet; it is a kitchen appliance that enhances food preparation and entertaining.
