The [slender handles of this faucet](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/botte-mixer) will be appreciated by the contemporary home owner as each curve was designed to be as ergonomically comfortable as possible. The Atrio collection understands that every home is different, and this line is reflective of that. The designs are available in numerous iterations including [surface and wall mounted](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bathroom-faucet-creator), ensuring that any home can enjoy the modern design. To make the design as minimal as possible, the brand opted to emboss a simple 'H' and 'C' on the sides of the taps, offering an unobtrusive but comprehensive experience.
