In a shift away from traditional kitchen luxuries, celebrities and royalty alike are embracing the trend of “lazy taps” as the latest status symbol in kitchen design.
These innovative taps, installed above the cooker, provide instant access to hot water, eliminating the need for kettle boiling and adding a touch of convenience to culinary endeavors.
Celebrity Endorsements: From Hailey Bieber to Amanda Seyfried
Renowned figures like Hailey Bieber, Amanda Seyfried, and Kendall Jenner have all integrated lazy taps into their high-end kitchens, showcasing their appreciation for both style and functionality.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are also rumored to have adopted the trend, as glimpsed in their Netflix series, further cementing the taps’ status as a coveted feature among the elite.
Aesthetic Appeal and Practicality: The Allure of Lazy Taps
Unlike traditional kitchen or bathroom taps, lazy taps, also known as pot fillers, offer a unique aesthetic appeal by being positioned above the hob.
This placement not only adds a visual statement to the kitchen but also provides practicality, allowing for easy access to hot water while cooking.
The Shift Away from Traditional Kettles: Impact on Kitchen Dynamics
With the growing popularity of lazy taps, there’s speculation that traditional kettles may soon become obsolete.
The convenience of instant hot water access not only saves time but also contributes to a more efficient kitchen environment, particularly for those working or studying from home.
Expert Perspectives: Aesthetic Appeal and Practical Considerations
Design experts like Tom Howley and Luke Shipway acknowledge the rising trend of lazy taps but suggest that the demand among British customers remains relatively modest.
While lazy taps may serve as a stylish addition to kitchen aesthetics, they are also viewed as a practical choice, particularly when incorporated into a comprehensive kitchen overhaul.
Additionally, the taps offer added functionality by alleviating congestion around the sink area, making tea breaks a breeze with quick access to hot water.
