HELM

Helm, signed by Lopez Quincoces, could be called an “absolute”, iconic object that takes the classic archetype of the tap with cross handles and turns it into cylindrical volumes that have been deconstructed then reconstructed, with carefully-designed proportions. “I start from complex ideas to then get to a synthesis and find a style that will most effectively stand the test of time and circumvent trends”, explains David Lopez Quincoces. Helm is the first line of steel taps launched by Zucchetti, both in single-lever and three hole versions. The design has been enriched by the introduction of colours, textures, vertical ridges and knurling to expand and diversify the aesthetics of the product, making it simultaneously exquisite and highly-performing, brutalist and ultra-chic. Helm began from pure geometric shapes that combine to create a versatile line with broad appeal that is particularly well-suited to the world of architecture. It provides different solutions to market demands, in all types of spaces: from commercial to hotel/contract and private homes.
