For this Hansgrohe USA bathroom faucet collection, Philippe Starck combines his minimalist and organic-inspired design tendencies. The Axor Starck Organic’s handle—one for water volume and one for temperature—merge seamlessly with the fixture body, like a tree branch. The first handle adjusts water flow from 0.9 gpm to 1.3 gpm, while the water remains in an energy-saving cold temperature until changed via the second handle. Similar to a showerhead, the faucet’s 90 jets release a water spray that massages hands. hansgrohe-usa.com
