Timed-rotary faucet adds to eco-friendly appeal.

      Turn this lavatory faucets retro rotary dial to 5, 10 or 15 seconds to manage how long the water flows from the spout.  Designer, Eun Ji Byeon developed this stylish polished metal design to make its users become eco-conscious and get a little joy out of new ways to conserve water when washing your hands.
      This is a cool alternative to the push-button water conservative faucets, in which you would never know how long the water will flow until you have to press it again.  Here you just turn the dial, just like an old-rotary phone, to the desired amount of seconds for the water to flow.  This faucet is great for residential applications where the the very expensive motion sensing faucets can not be used.
     There is an option on this new faucet to keep the water continually flowing, but the idea of being able to gauge how much (or how long) you need water to flow is very interesting.  In addition to a new timing mechanism for water flow, it also increases the user's awareness of how much water is needed to perform different tasks like washing hands or brushing teeth.
