Err, Yes It’s A Water Droplet!

Igor Palichev of the DarkDesignGroup wrote to me saying their new design is inspired by the water droplet. But the naughty side of me refuses to look at the Bool Bool Faucet with innocent eyes! This concept bath mixer combines the two mechanisms: the mixing of hot and cold water, and regulating water pressure; in one protruding rubbery adjustment. A vertical shift controls the water pressure and a horizontal flick, the temperature. Honestly, am I the only one who thinks this a wicked design in a very cute way?
