We speak with Dan Biddle, Product Manager at Abode, regarding the company’s latest new product range, Althia Colours.
“The kitchen space continues to be guided by the calm of nature and this year’s colour palette is embracing a confident use of colour across the fixtures and fittings. Stand out shades emerging this year are offering a new take on warm neutrals and earth-tone paint colours and it is these variations, which are creating a strong style identity and giving new life to the kitchen mixer tap.
We are therefore extremely excited to personify the UK wash zone with the launch of Althia Colours, our latest range of contemporary shades designed for one of our signature and bestselling kitchen tap families, Althia.
Now available in four modern paint colours, the new Althia Colours are designed to capture the latest interior trends and present a Mediterranean-style Terracotta, neutral Nude, Nordic-style Scandi Grey and Matt White, dubbed the fastest emerging tap colour inspired by the Scandinavian design trend.
The new Althia Colours extend the Althia Finish Library from 6 to 10 options, meaning you can now choose between a range of colours and metals across a mix of single lever, monobloc and pull-out designs from the Althia Tap Family by Abode.
Exclusively available for Althia single lever mixer taps, the new Althia Colours help to highlight the beautifully contoured spout and slim lever handle, which offers a subtle blend of square and round forms in one design. The ideal choice for a large kitchen or compact utility room, the new Althia Colours are expertly handcrafted from quality raw materials and feature an innovative control valve and anti-splash spout to ensure stylish durability and allow for optimum usage with minimal water waste!
Designed with copper tailpipes for greater stability and flow when fixing to the mains supply, the Althia Tap Family is highly versatile and now, is proud to offer four different style collections:
- NEW Althia Colours (Single Lever) Nude, Matt White, Terracotta and Scandi Grey
- Althia Metals (Single Lever) Chrome, Brushed Nickel, Brushed Brass, Urban Copper, Graphite and Matt Black
- Althia Monoblocs (Dual Lever) Chrome and Brushed Nickel
- Althia Pull Outs (Single Lever with Spray) Chrome and Brushed Nickel
By definition, the 2023 contemporary kitchen is founded on top-tier originality with this year’s hero products including taps with real wood handles, and monobloc designs in fine painted finishes. Being able to beautifully coordinate the hardware with the furniture, materials and other finishing touches like the door handles and light switches are a huge design asset when innovating with colour.
Personalisation through colour is therefore increasingly important as homeowners want to create a distinctive décor, which reflects their personal style without compromising on utility and performance. By capturing the latest style trends with the release of four new tap colours, we want to inspire our customers to shape the kitchen space with a complementary or contrasting colour that embodies their own personal style and home décor.”
