Kohler's KARBON

Revealed to the public amidst much fanfare at K/BIS, Kohler's new KARBON faucet is Intelligently engineered to hold any pose for hands-free operation.
The design, so simple in premise, works wonderfully. I had the chance to "articulate" the faucet at the show and found it held its position remarkably, even when you have the faucet going full steam.
Because of its range, it can extend the faucet to fill large pots, lower it into the sink for cleanup, fold it compactly out of the way, or position it anywhere in between.

According to Kohler, the faucet offers both spray and aerated water flow options, eliminating the need for a sidespray. An elaborate design detail is featured in the remote joystick valve that consists of two disks of identical size installed flush with the countertop to provide an unusually sleek look and offer easy cleaning.
Note: you're going to have to rough-in some hardware the old-fashioned way as the joystick valve requires non-standard holes of two inches in diameter.
