Sento is Graff’s latest collection of bathroom faucets and accessories created and coordinated by Angeletti Ruzza.
The new collection embodies characteristics of synthesis. By reducing ornamentation and focusing on SENTO’s basic aspect – functioning as an element of the bathroom – Angeletti Ruzza gives life to various elements with strong visual influence and bold lines.
The classic faucet form has been newly redefined by slim, contemporary forms without harming functionality. The lever is solid but also light and because of its intelligent design, the faucet body covers the sink or countertop hole, therefore avoiding the need for an unsightly covering plate. The spout was crafted in such a way to allow water to flow out centrally while the slim angles give the faucet a feeling of openness.
Through focusing priority consideration and sensitivity on the demands of daily contemporary life, Graff has incorporated a series of wall and floor mounted options within the SENTO series which are both practical and aesthetically pleasing.
SENTO claims to be a product line capable of existing across time through adapting to society and its transformations.
The SENTO collection consists of 15 faucet elements and includes a complete line of accessories available in four finishes: polished chrome, black or white matte with chrome accents, and Steelnox.
