Eccentric pays homage to the quirky genius of the greatest minds in history. Albert Einstein’s bizarre habit of picking up used cigarettes, Nikola Tesla’s daily toe exercises and Yoshiro Nakamatsu’s oxygen depriving deep dives are acts that tell of the individualism, wonder and curiosity found in many great scientists, explorers and inventors, and their rebellion against convention.
With its axis uniquely positioned off-centre, Eccentric embraces quirky genius in its tap mixer design by progressively revealing an unexpected back-plate featuring cold and hot indicators when the handle is turned to an open position. Once the handle is returned to its closed position, the unconventional back-plate is hidden once again.
