The simple art of selecting faucets and spouts so that the water actually reaches the basin! You would not believe some of the things we see as designers, a few simple measurements will ensure that the water does not flow straight down the plug hole or another is when you turn on the faucet the water pressure is so high that it hits the basin and jumps out at you and wets your clothing, very embarrasing as a guest in a home!
