Wash your hands and have a sip of water at the same time with the Water Fountain Tap by Neils van Hoof.
This smart and clever design integrates a sink's faucet with a fountain spout, making it super-easy to take a swig of water. Industrial designer Niels van Hoof suggests connecting the spout directly to the cold-water source so that you always quench your thirst with cold, refreshing water. To work the drinking fountain, you just simply push the handle downwards; to use the faucet as a normal tap, you just pull it back and turn it left or right.
The Water Fountain Tap will save you from having to buy bottled water. Since tap water is good for you anyway, go ahead and take a sip out of this nifty faucet.
