A warm thank you to Gessi who sponsored Blog Tour LA, which I recently attended.
I was interested to learn how this company had evolved since its inception in 1992.
Recently, I encountered a successful healthcare model described as practising ‘Disruptive Innovation’. The latter is an approach that seeks to improve a product or service in ways unexpected by the market, by designing for a different consumer in a new market, which then successfully gets taken up by the mass.
I think Gessi’s ability to think outside the box makes it a master of disruptive innovation. In1996, this was evident when it raised the status of a common faucet to an object of design, with its Diverso range .
More recently, Gessi has released a faucet called Goccia, meaning ‘drop’, designed by Prospero Rasulo.
Its design consist of a sleek curve with a water droplet end. It comes in white, black, silver and even platinum.
Gessi has designed this to blend seamlessly into spaces one would not even consider placing faucets, such as a dining or living room.
Aesthetics aside, the Goccia taps are also environmentally friendly, with a 50% water saving ability that does not compromise on function.
I say bring on more Disruptive Innovation. Wishing you all a lovely weekend.
I love the curve of the Goccia which is an ornate version of the Vola tap I have in my Kitchen at home. Have a lovely weekend. xx
Yes I do too, that curve so elegant. A lovely weekend to you too. x
Faucets are taps, right? Sorry, I’m not used to seeing that word over here 😉 Love the one in the last picture. It looks very elegant with that beautiful curve and the simple end. Have a lovely weekend xo
Hi Carole, yes, faucets are taps. Love the Goccia too. Happy weekend. x
The curves of the Goccia are so lovely – such a wonderful shape and form to it. Great write up! x
Thank you Will 😉 x
Oh I like the term, “disruptive innovation”! Gessi have some beautiful elegant designs and the curve is a perfect representation. I’m interested in the idea of having a basin in the living room???!! I’ll have to check it out. Have a great weekend Geraldine! xx
Hi Mel, I’m loving that term too – applying the concept to my work. Have a great weekend too. x
I hope you’re feeling better lovely. I’m a huge fan of the Jielde lamps. Hmm, not sure that’s an original in the first pic:-))

Thank you, a bit better. I’m not sure about that lamp I’m afraid. Have a great week Tina. x
