The one in the Calgary office splashes everywhere when you try to rinse something in the sink because the water stream starts so far above the top of the sink.Nicolenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4812246279354644789.post-42639677180874333562012-02-01T14:15:04.670-05:002012-02-01T14:15:04.670-05:00I think you'll be fine!

We have a very tall gooseneck faucet that the previous owners installed, and it looks horrible - but only because our sink is on a peninsula and the height of the faucet blocks the view out the patio doors. It's all you see walking into the kitchen!Daniellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12343573468746180679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4812246279354644789.post-54956028783134321502012-02-01T11:58:16.400-05:002012-02-01T11:58:16.400-05:00Think of the height of the faucet in relation to t...Think of the height of the faucet in relation to the size of the sink. If the sink is 18" wide then you need a shorter faucet but if it's 36" you can go taller.

By the way, I can't believe the pic third from the bottom is a LAUNDRY ROOM! That's crazy. So pretty! I just assumed it was a kitchen with laundry in it. That concept isn't so popular in Canada, but I saw a lot of it England.Emily-Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11610006686385045681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4812246279354644789.post-6430323876533099942012-02-01T05:57:53.539-05:002012-02-01T05:57:53.539-05:00Our faucet also comes quite a bit higher than the ...Our faucet also comes quite a bit higher than the window sill. It's something I was worried about at the beginning too, whether the sight line would look funny, but I don't even notice it anymore. What I do notice is how much I can get under there without sturggling with a low faucet, so I say do it up!Lindshttp://www.little-orphan-aggie.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4812246279354644789.post-396331219704295362012-02-01T00:03:11.000-05:002012-02-01T00:03:11.000-05:00Our kitchen faucet comes above our windowsill.

If you have backsplash planned then I'd say it should go higher than the top of the faucet.FrankandRoxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13242538402519402416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4812246279354644789.post-4940750090772705922012-01-31T23:26:58.006-05:002012-01-31T23:26:58.006-05:00I definitely feel like an adult "oohing and a...I definitely feel like an adult "oohing and ahhing" over faucets :)Alena: Oh, Its Just Perfect!https://www.blogger.com/profile/16343119650393420002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4812246279354644789.post-48337736952214504732012-01-31T22:56:45.633-05:002012-01-31T22:56:45.633-05:0015 1/2" is about right.

I think the tall faucet could totally work as long as it's 1) gorg, which it is, 2) centered, which you said it would be, and 3) the one you love above all other faucets! :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07100213116871508106noreply@blogger.com
