Have a look at standard faucets and their 'waterways'! Because in your concept there is too little space to give the water a specific direction at the outlet, apart from probably having an undersize opening. The other thing is that you need to give the engineers enough space to change the inner architecture in order to reduce noise level (water running through non-optimized cheap faucets can be really loud!). One can also argue that the design lacks a removable filter element, but this might not be necessary for a concept. Maybe you could hide it away under the colored caps. Keep up the good work! cheers m Looks great, but as I’ve been in that business a while ago I’d suggest a few alterations to actually make it work:

Love the hollow spout, it's definitely one of those details that makes someone do a double take when the form registers in their brain. The customizable color blocks are a major plus too for those who want to match paint or themes in their bathroom. Awesome!
