Design Goal:
The Kallista Script™ Decorative collection offers a variety of exquisite handle options to transform any space into a respite of sophistication and impeccable taste to allow one to craft their own story. Each faucet in this collection is available with an array of decorative upgrade options and finishes.
One of my roles was to design a decorative handle detail inspired by Guilloché, but executed using the detailed Cloissoné enamel process.
Inspiration:
Contour Art, floral patterns and textures, movement, and stained glass.

Color Tests:
