"My counter tops aren’t cluttered and we have no use for a slow-to-boil kettle. It really has transformed daily life for us. "

The brief

“The kitchen hadn’t been touched since the 70s and was all peach gloss walls and net curtains, so was in desperate need of some TLC,” comments Rebecca. “We wanted a bright, family-friendly space with an island but I also wanted to use a fresh and interesting palette. We chose green (Farrow & Ball’s Treron) for the kitchen units with brass accents and wood tones.” When it comes to kitchen appliances, Rebecca has definitely noticed a common theme among her clients, “genuinely, the number one luxury, top of the wish list item is a boiling water tap,” she says. “However it was only when we were doing our kitchen that I started to consider how much we’d benefit from one - certainly when it comes to the convenience of having a cuppa, or more importantly, bedtime milk for our toddler, in a matter of seconds!”

The solution

One thing that Rebecca was keen on was to get a tap that fitted in well with the green and brass colour scheme. “Zip have been on my radar for a while, so I was thrilled to discover the tap comes in brushed gold,” she continues. “But I know from experience that style can often outweigh performance and there’s nothing worse than something that looks great but just doesn’t work. Luckily Zip is a trusted brand so we chose the Zip HydroTap Celsius Arc in brushed gold.” Rebecca’s Celsius Arc is much more than just a boiling water tap, providing unfiltered hot and cold water alongside filtered boiling. “Because it is my regular kitchen tap as well as my boiling water tap the kitchen has retained a clean, minimal feel,” adds Rebecca. “My counter tops aren’t cluttered and we have no use for a slow-to-boil kettle. It really has transformed daily life for us.”
