Inspired by the captivating beauty of flower petals, the ZA Faucet is meticulously crafted to emulate their graceful allure.

The ZA series of TOTO Global Faucets embodies the beauty of asymmetry found in nature. Characterized by crisp edges and generous fluid curves, the ZA Faucet’s dual-tone spout offers the contrapuntal beauty of polished and brushed finishes combined in this modulated form to achieve a balanced design.

Drawing inspiration from the exquisite delicacy of a flower petal, the ZA series handle offers an organic form that gracefully tapers towards the front. Its asymmetrical positioning sets it apart from the spout, which features an exceptionally slim profile meticulously crafted to seamlessly harmonize with the gentle curvature of the washbasin bowl. This thoughtful combination evokes a sense of tranquility akin to a gentle breeze or soft melody, elevating the design s allure to unprecedented heights.

Winner of the 2019 Red Dot Award, the ZA series faucet creates a sense of serenity in your bathroom, mirroring the peacefulness found in nature.

The GO Faucet draws inspiration from a vibrant, youthful plant yearning for the sun while absorbing nourishment from the earth beneath.

Inspired by the subtle grace of the natural world, TOTO’s GO faucet family expresses a refined, delicate beauty with its fusion of organic forms with the fluidity of its elegant, sleek lines. Its design draws on the image of a young, healthy plant stretching upward toward the sun as it draws nourishment from the earth below.

These matchless lavatory faucets illustrate refined style with their graceful organic design and unique top- or side-mount single handle. The GO faucet will serve as a sophisticated statement piece in any bath.

TOTO’s GS Faucet draws inspiration from the mesmerizing beauty of a crystalline lake. 

The simple, graceful design of the GS Faucet Series features a seamless, one-piece design with a gently sloping spout silhouette that pays homage to the beauty of nature and the superb craftsmanship of TOTO. It melds modern fluidity with transitional design elements for an elegant, approachable faucet collection that complements traditional, transitional, and contemporary bath decors.

TOTO s LB Faucet Series derives inspiration from the interplay of branches gracefully unfurling against the captivating backdrop of an urban cityscape.

The LB faucet family embodies the maxim that the simplest designs can be the most beautiful. Characterized by a simple arrangement of cylindrical shapes, the LB Faucet defies expectation with the smooth curves that join its components. In this way, the LB faucet brings to mind the juxtaposition of organic elements with the built environment—almost like the branches of a tree emerging against the backdrop of an urban cityscape.

DESIGNS INSPIRED BY JAPANESE CRAFTS

The GE Faucet draws inspiration from the Japanese Katana, a single-edged curved sword known for its historical significance to samurai culture.

Inspired by the finely-honed beauty of a Katana, or traditional Japanese sword, the GE Faucet Family embodies the beauty of classical Japanese design updated in a contemporary form. The GE Faucets merge TOTO’s latest technology and craftsmanship with a deep respect for traditional Japanese crafts and techniques  less industrial, more artisanal sensibility. The GE faucet’s classic five-sided Chevron design, with its distinctive V-shape, extends from the faucet’s base to the tip of the spout, recalling the razor-sharp cutting edge of a traditional Japanese sword. With the beauty of carefully ground metalwork, the multifaceted reflective surfaces capture a range of expressions.

The TOTO GR Faucet takes its inspiration from the brilliance and radiance of a precious gemstone. 

The perfect balance of the bold block design, gently curved surface, and crisp edges on the handle and spout surface make for a sophisticated design statement. The contemporary GR Faucet Series’ streamlined design is regally square without the blocky look associated with most square single-lever faucet designs.

The thin spout adds symmetry to the lever handle for geometric balance and fluidity that accentuates the independent operation of the handle. The handle’s width is equal to the spout s, providing a harmonious counterpoint to the commanding square faucet body. The handle, spout, and body reflect light, shining like a jewel.

The TOTO GF Faucet takes design cues from a timeless antique water pump.

The GF Faucet Series is characterized by its refined aesthetic, from its elegant integration of oblong and round shapes that combine to create a super-slim cylindrical design with a high-end luxury sensibility. The delicate workmanship at its joints and slender cleft are set off to advantage by its clean, simple lines. The high-quality, spindle-processed handle has a delightful feel to the touch. Using a brushed finish on the handle and a polished finish on the body results in a rich contrast of textures in the faucet’s finish.

DESIGNS DRAWN FROM JAPANESE HISTORY AND CULTURE

The TOTO GC Faucet is inspired by the captivating beauty of traditional Japanese temples.  

Inspired by the rows of columns standing at a Japanese temple’s entrance, the GC Faucet Series epitomizes timeless sophistication and contemporary elegance informed by ancient Japanese culture. This elegant faucet family will make a striking design statement in residential bath spaces and bath environments in both hospitality and commercial settings.

The GC Faucet’s widespread design is a showpiece featuring a dramatic high arc ribbon spout. The horizontal line at the base of the faucet and its lever handles serve to unify the design. This elegant faucet’s low center of gravity adds a dignified accent to interior spaces.

The TOTO GM Faucet draws inspiration from the magnificent Japanese Torii Gate that graces the entrance of a traditional Japanese temple.

Characterized by bold parallel arches and reflective curves, the majestic GM Faucet Series’ spout and columnar body invoke the dignity and stately aura of the bow-shaped arc atop a traditional Torii gate at the entrance to a Japanese temple. The highlights that trace its gently beveled edges further accent its imposing presence.

Winner of the 2019 Red Dot Design Award, the majestic GM faucet family offers homeowners and designers an opportunity to incorporate designs informed by ancient Japanese architecture updated for today.
