bearings

bearings by federico capogrossi from mexico

designer's own words:

a cross-polination between bearings and handles, reinterpreting and applying them as three mobile spheres enclosed in a metallic frame.
when holding the handle the spheres rolls into the frame adjusting themselves to the shape and grip of various users hand dimensions and strength.
illustrated in chrome plated, chrome plated + brass spheres and a collage of different textures and why not different material for the spheres, stimulating the tact.
symmetric handles (non handed)
general dimensions, raw materials and finishes are based on colombo´s standard.
