I think the Water Fountain Tap by Niels van Hoof is quite a clever design. It integrates a faucet with a fountain spout to make it convenient to drink. He suggests linking the fountain spout directly to the cold-water source, so that when you put the handle downwards, you get your refreshing drink of water. To activate the faucet as a normal tap, you just need to pull it back and turn it left or right. Simple and doable!

i agree, the design looks extremely functional. My wife and I have been looking at faucets. It is suprisingly difficult to find style and functionality in the same product.

Wouldn't the top of the tap constantly get wet? Sort of a less elegant part of the design to me.
Agree…but some how i know not everyone will be bothered by the fact.
