Description

This week, we dive deep into the world of tapware with Rhys Beal from ABI Interiors—unpacking how this once purely functional hardware has evolved into a style statement and investment decision all on its own. You’ll get the inside scoop on how tapware has transformed over the years, moving beyond chrome to a stunning palette of finishes and materials.

Rhys shares everything you didn’t know you needed to know about tapware—from durability and coatings to cost-effective design decisions that last. We talk about the differences between PVD, electroplating, lacquer coating, and powder coating and how ABI Interior's approach to manufacturing and product testing is raising the bar across the industry. (As well as some upcoming exciting new developments and product ranges!)

Whether you’re designing your forever home or making strategic decisions on that next project, this episode will give you the clarity you need to make smart, stylish tapware choices.

Head to their website to take a look at ABI Interiors' dreamy range of tapware, basins, sinks, vanities, baths, showers, and accessories as well as the great house tours and interviews they share on Instagram for inspo:
