How the spray pattern from Dornbracht fittings acts as an extension to the product design

A steady flow: A good fitting design does not stop at the product composition, but it continues in the spray pattern. So, for Dornbracht and Sieger Design, the way in which the water is shaped and presented plays a crucial role: The same design principles that were applied to the classic fittings such as CL.1, CYO and TARA are also reflected in the flow of their water.

The five design principles that create the product DNA
What is it that makes the Dornbracht fittings design objects? What defines their status as highly influential style icons? An important part of the answer lies within the five design principles that the Iserlohn-based manufacturer formulated jointly with Sieger Design, establishing the basis for all product designs. Harmonious, balanced proportions. Precision that is expressed in clean lines and accurate radii. The interplay between performance and progressiveness. And personality: every Dornbracht fitting embodies a certain character that radiates conciseness and independence. All these principles also take effect when it comes to the structure and texture of the presented water. The spray pattern acts as an extension and completes the design of the fitting.

Spray patterns act as an extension to the design of the fitting
With CL.1, for example, 40 soft, individual jets caress the hands, and at the same time emphasise the dynamic sensuality of the fitting. A distinguishing feature of the specially developed spray face is an efficient water consumption of 3.9 litres per minute. With CYO, Dornbracht gives a new interpretation to the archetypal C-shaped spout, bestowing a sculptural quality to the striking basic form. Here, the jet of water follows the wide shape of the spout, before tapering off elegantly. TARA also applies its own form, influenced by symmetry, to its spray pattern: the 180-degree bend of the spout and the water, form an unbroken line. It falls steadily and straight, emphasising the minimalist, timeless character of Dornbracht’s design icon.
