surface

surface by nigel sylvester from usa

designer's own words:

surface is constructed of strong grade of aluminum or steel in a finish of mirror polish. ribbons which reflect the planes above and below extend from the barrel and subsequently meld into a single lever. the ribbons extend within the barrel, providing structural reinforcement.

the interior of the ribbons are designed with a darkened finish that is meant to boost contrast against the ribbon exterior when viewed in profile, though not a necessary element.

the barrel is designed with a flat facade and finished in black over a small, slightly recessed core in metal typical to the lever body.

surface features a two-tiered square back plate with clean, non beveled, non rounded edges which provide the lever with an appearance of suspended animation.

surface may be available in alternate finishes and tone on tone combinations including but not limited to;
brushed aluminum,
polished nickel,
textured brass,
polished aluminum lever against a black barrel and back plate,

unusual; wood-look finishes
teak against a brass barrel and back plate
wenge against a chrome barrel and back plate

befitting of sleek, contemporary environments.
