C handle

by Hugo Hissashi Hayashi Hisamatsu from brazil

designer's own words:

C-handle is a customizable door handle with interchangeable parts that are assembled on a metal body.
With the same product, user may choose the colors and style of his/her door handle through many combinations. Besides it, C-handle has a compartment to store small objects like pieces of paper (with notes or shopping list, for example), pen drives or keys (so people avoid losing them after they get home). The storage compartment may be taken out and be used as case. It is made of magnetized metal to attract metal objects, specially keys or pieces of keychains.

The circular shape of the product reminds doorknob, but, in fact, is a lever handle with a larger contact area, making opening doors easier. Other characteristic is that the product permits the habit of hanging things on the handle. So the axis position isn't on the edge of the door handle, so objects don't slip out while door is opened.
