shpaera by ana gomes from portugal

This door handle which was given the name «sphaera» is supposed to bring us part of the past into the present, with a modern touch. I am talking about the traditional round door handles that were commonly used in the ART NOVEAU. Through a connection of several spheres and after having done several experiments I reach this form which is presented in this project. I have tried to project this door handle as ergonomic and nice to its touch as possible as I chose the plastic injection that consists in merging the plastic in the extruder by using a screw from it to inject the plastic into a mold where it is cooled. This process allows the handle to have different colours and adapts itself to different tastes in each house and to each person.
