A friend had been hunting around trying to find black tapware for their bathroom and handles for the doors with no luck.  Only a few days ago did I come across these faucets - they would have been perfect. The first range is called Kawa and is designed by Karim Rashid for Cisal.  You can actually get them in extremely bright almost psychedelic colours as well.  The third image is the Nuva tap by Altmans that comes in six different black finishes and is not cheap at about US$800!  All very hip and very exey!
