Franke unveils the renewed Pescara Taps series: a perfect balance of sculptural design and professional performance that transforms the kitchen into a space of well-living


T


he modern kitchen has evolved far beyond a place for cooking, it’s a


space where creativity flows through food preparation and style makes a statement. Recognising this evolution, Franke has developed


two new Pescara tap models, the Semi-Pro and the J Pull-Down uniting professional performance, exceptional functionality and sustainable design in a solid stainless steel finish. The Semi Pro model is built from premium stainless steel and features a slim, refined handle

The flexible hose offers dual spray options, with a reach ideal for rinsing round bowls and helping with food prep, smoothly docking and held securely into its magnetic holder. Says Amie Gee, marketing manager at Franke
