Smoothie by vlatka blakšić from croatia
designer's own words:
in environment full of savors the goal is to eliminate the unnecessary ones. the handle is designed to minimize awerness of using it and to allow user to concentrate on more important moves. the amorphous form is smooth and easy to grip, it came out from experimenting and modeling in soft material to “invisibly” fit to various types of palms and ways of grabbing handle. this door handle is not in horizontal position (not parallel with floor), it’s rotated few degrees counterclockwise to accumulate pressure on fist and hand muscles and to provide more natural position of body. the top surface of handle is slightly curved to allow point of pressure to spread on bigger surface.
