California Faucets COTO™ Outdoor Faucet Earns “Best of Year” Honors

The stainless steel standout was named a “Best of Year” Honoree by Interior Design magazine, recognizing its durability, performance and style


(Huntington Beach, CA, January 13, 2025) California Faucets proudly announces that the COTO™ Series outdoor kitchen faucet has been named an Honoree in Interior Design magazine’s prestigious Best of Year (BoY) Awards. Celebrating its 20th anniversary in 2025, the BoY Awards recognize the most significant design achievements across products and projects worldwide. The COTO Series was selected as a finalist in the highly competitive Kitchen Fittings Category. 

Chosen from more than 1,200 submissions representing 41 countries, BoY Honorees are evaluated by a jury of leading architects, designers, and industry professionals, underscoring COTO’s achievement as a standout in both form and function. 

“COTO represents a new standard for outdoor kitchen design—one where craftsmanship, proportion, finish options and design are just as important as durability. We’re honored that the design community recognizes that approach,” says Jeff Silverstein, Head of Product & Brand at California Faucets. 

The COTO series balances rugged performance with refined aesthetics. Crafted from marine-grade 316 stainless steel, it’s engineered to withstand extreme temperatures, moisture, and corrosion without compromising style. A sculptural spout, architectural proportions, and thoughtful detailing create a commanding yet elegant presence in luxury outdoor kitchens or sophisticated indoor spaces. 

The flexible series features four distinctive handle designs: Textured Paddle, Quad Blade, Appliance Knob, and Dotted Knob. Two spout options (High or low) and an optional pull-down sprayer further enhance customization while a suite of coordinated stainless steel accessories including a soap dispenser, water dispenser, and more, complete the look. 

Each COTO kitchen faucet is custom-made and hand-finished at California Faucets’ Huntington Beach factory and offered in seven finishes. The collection includes four extra-durable PVD options—Lifetime Satin Gold, Satin Bronze, Graphite, and Satin Brass—making California Faucets the first to introduce PVD finishes for outdoor kitchen faucets. Additional finishes include  Matte Black, Satin Stainless Steel, and Bella Terra Bronze. 

The 2025 nod adds to California Faucets’ long history of Best of Year accolades, including wins for the Davoli® Series Pull-Down Kitchen Faucet, Corsano® Culinary Pull-Out Kitchen Faucet,  ZeroDrain® “pop-down” drain, StyleDrain® Tile, and CeraLine® channel drain StyleDrain®, the industry’s first-ever decorative drain, which created the popular luxury drain category.
