clbo

clbo by pascal schaller from france

designer's own words:

A playful composition based on circles and ellipses.
The twist reveals the idea of rotation and evokes the main mechanism of opening a door.

This design aims to be discreet but with a strong visual impact.
The round aspect of the handle invites to clench and to apprehend the door lever.
With your palm, enclosing the larger flattened part of the handle, the vertically aligned part keeps the thumb in position and assures a secure grip.

The door lever is manufactured from cast aluminium, this material is suggested for its visual softness, warmth and it’s hygienically qualities.
