Platform about design and technology in the kitchen, home, and bathroom industry
Franke's constant focus on innovation earned the brand seven major awards, strengthening its expertise in water solutions and further confirming its leadership position in designing fully integrated home systems.
It is extraordinary recognition for Franke's cutting-edge products, with four prestigious mentions at the Kitchen Innovation Awards 2024, three for the Mythos Water Hub, including the Best of the Best for the best product in its category and the Best Innovation Award in all categories, as well as recognition for the Mythos Masterpiece faucet from the award-winning Mythos Masterpiece collection.
The expert jury of the Red Dot Awards 2024 - one of the most important product design awards in the world - also chose to honor the innovative Mythos Water Hub and the Mythos Masterpiece faucet, further confirming Franke's ability to deliver exceptional products.
Having previously won the Red Dot Award in 2023, the Icon Semi-Pro faucet - the latest edition of the award-winning Icon series of faucets - has now earned a second accolade with an iF Design Award 2024 in recognition of its outstanding design.
The award-winning Mythos Water Hub is an innovative 6-in-1 home water solution that makes it easy to choose and instantly access your preferred water, ensuring every glass you drink is pure, safe and delicious. On top of the standard choice of hot and cold water, consumers can choose from a selection of 4 special filtered water features: ambient water for any time of day, chilled to reduce the need for ice, sparkling to aid digestion and instant boiling water to significantly reduce preparation time for hot drinks, pasta dishes and vegetables. With a multi-function system with electronic LED indicator for smart and easy operation, the Mythos Water Hub allows you to easily choose between these special functions.
Mythos Water Hub by Franke empowers consumers by bringing superior water experiences to homes of all sizes.
Moreover, the Mythos Water Hub represents an extremely compact one-box solution for all your water needs that can be easily installed under the sink, bringing order and convenience together. You'll also save even more space in your kitchen, as the Mythos Water Hub eliminates the need to buy bottles of flat and sparkling water, replaces soda carbonators and kettles, and even frees up refrigerator and freezer space you once needed for chilling bottled water, saving more space in your kitchen. Truly a one-stop water solution.
The newly award-winning Mythos Masterpiece is the latest addition to Franke's already award-winning Mythos Masterpiece collection and represents the jewel in the crown, completing the range and taking it to the next level. The patterned body design, which contrasts with the clean look of the collection, draws attention to the exceptional appearance of the faucet. The Mythos Masterpiece faucet is available in a selection of colors - stainless steel, anthracite, gold and copper - to give consumers a free hand to express themselves fully.
And while the Mythos Masterpiece faucet attracts attention for its beautiful design, it also boasts features that make it both functional and flexible in use: the faucet has a tall and curved shape that provides ample space above the sink, making washing and rinsing easier. The faucet comes with a pull-out spray designed for maximum flexibility that allows large pans and other kitchen accessories to easily fit under the spout. Thanks to the dual-spray feature, a more powerful water flow is available, making cleaning fruits and vegetables easier and fighting stubborn dirt on plates and pans. The pull-out flexible hose gives even more control, allowing the user to reach any corner of the sink, regardless of size, providing a truly comfortable experience. Moreover, the laminar aerator ensures that the faucet delivers a crystal-clear, non-splashing flow of water, with very little noise, providing high-quality support for the most demanding households.
The complete Mythos Masterpiece collection is an exclusive range of colored stainless steel faucets and accessories carefully curated with an emphasis on both aesthetics and functionality, offering the freedom to create a truly unique kitchen. Each component is designed to fit together seamlessly, offering endless opportunities to mix and match to create a unique kitchen.
The Franke Icon Semi-Pro is a true triumph of design, designed to meet the needs of home cooks and cooking enthusiasts. The latest edition of the award-winning Icon faucet series, fits perfectly into any modern kitchen and features a recognizable iconic shape that is both stylish and functional.
With its unique dimensions, the Icon Semi-Pro can be mounted on a kitchen island, giving customers maximum convenience and flexibility. The matte black finish adds a trendy touch to any cooking space, while the sleek design completely matches sinks and accessories, giving your kitchen a stylish look.
