spring

by matteo carbonoli from italy

designer's own words:

We thought a door handle, that, while working as a machine, is perceived as one body.
Spring is the handle obtained by pressing, shearing and TIG welding of a single sheet of steel which results in a piece that works for either side of the door.
The piece is then inserted in the mold for the injection of thermoplastic silicone.
The rose is in PA and is seat to the second pivot of the handle too. The rose cover has a brushed steel finish, as the handle. Around the spindle and the pivot (fixed components of rotation of the pantograph) is placed a protection in thermoplastic silicone for both sides of the door.
