One of the perennial rules of design is to spend money on the parts of your home you most frequently touch. In the kitchen, there are few things you touch more than the faucet. If yours is dated, corroding, or just plain doesn’t match your style, replace it with one that does. A matte black faucet instantly modernizes the sink, but stainless steel is still a hot finish, too. Articulated arms are both functional and on trend. And for extra convenience, many faucets are now, you guessed it, touchless, meaning it won’t get covered in whatever you’re trying to wash off your hands as you turn it on and off.
