Alex Miller
Architect and Artist
Growing up in coastal California, Alex Miller recognized the beauty in nature all around him and was inspired to create his own paradise in whatever form he could. Alex designs faucets with organic designs, because he recognized that faucets are a remarkable celebration of nature and of the water cycle – a story that begins in the sea where the ocean surface forms into clouds. With this in mind he began hand sculpting his original designs for the Aurora and Sky faucet collections.
Alex Miller Studio creates original designs through an organic process of experimentation with hand made sculpture. Each design evolves in this way from one artist’s dream into a functional product that has both a unique identity and a signature style.
SIGMA Design Lab
Our in-house SIGMA Design Lab is a team of experienced designers who design new and advanced faucetry products. They derive design inspirations from industrial products, natural objects, and living organisms, repurposing design ideas and evolving them into fresh design concepts that become realized into new faucetry products. The SIGMA Design Lab also includes our best sales and marketing professionals, who are highly-experienced and have vast expertise in high-end faucetry. They provide valuable market input from our customers.

Mario Semchuck
Engineering Faucet Maker
Consulting Engineer
Mario Semchuck has a passion for creativity which he expresses by designing new faucetry products. He combines form and function — aesthetics and engineering — in his faucet designs. His engineering approach is based on the foundation of a solid mechanical design that not only works properly, but works consistently well with long-term durability. The components that make a product must be producible using standard manufacturing processes, with tolerances that can be controlled and verified. The product must be easy to assemble, in either low or high volume production runs. In addition to reliable mechanical function, the factors of aesthetics, cost, ease of installation and easy serviceability are the other essentials that must be considered from the inception of any product design project.
In the mid-1980’s, Mario worked for Price Pfister as the research and development manager recommending, developing, and implementing new products.
In 1996, Mario co-founded Wave Corporation and served as the Vice President of Engineering and designed and engineered the core line of products — lead free faucets for use with filtration and reverse osmosis systems.
In the early 2000's, Mario formed Random Design LLC and worked as an engineering consultant for the following companies: Sloan Valve Company, Kohler, Kallista, Delta Faucet, Technical Concepts, Prier Products, Inter/Source Services, Watts/Premier Water Systems, American Faucet, Harden Industries, Precision Brass, and Anaheim Manufacturing.
Mario has 17 United States design and utility patents and several foreign applications.
