'round&'round& by maria sebastian from spain
designer's own words:
the project begins questioning the usual polygonal shape of door handles.
if usually bags have round handles, why doors don’t?
so the door handle becomes a metallic ring.
at the same time we can answer ourselves what happens if we make a hole in the door.
that’s not a problem.
at home we have lots of “symbolical doors”.
circulation zones, storage rooms... don’t need to be hermetically closed.
even it can be better if we permit light and wind to enter.
concept of privacy should be revised.
of course, we should also give the chance of a more conventional solution, where the handle is made of two pieces so the door can be massive.
the material can be brass, finish chrome or mate chrome. the "daring one" version should be made with two semicircles joined in the point where the door is pierced.
