description: This series of accessories and taps made of chromed brass, chromed zama, glass and plastic was designed for use in the home and in hotels. The result both of a coherent industrial operation and of strategic marketing, the Plus series of accessories and taps involved two firms that each remained independent, operating in reciprocally distant areas but cooperating on a shared design project. The series was designed to have a line that would instil confidence in its users. The focus was on both high technology and the good looks necessary to make such a product suitable for a variety of different markets: from private to contract. Although it has a price structure that makes it competitive on the market, the care paid to designing this series’ mixer taps makes the entire production range particularly sophisticated and gives it a guarantee.
