VICE the door handle by muhamed cerimovic from bosnia-herzegovina

The design is stripped down to two essential elements that are found in handles
- the circle: the sine qua non in handles as it conveys its functional essence
- the (simplified) keyhole: a symbol which fortifies our connection to doors as an association to security, privacy and mystery.

the keyhole shaped handle slides through the cylinder body much like on a vice. when positioned either for a left-hand or right-hand door, it is fixed with a security pin. the simplicity of form allows this to be made from just about anything: steel, wood, plastic, aluminium, glass, stone...

simplicity together with it's tough and raw appearance gives us an impression of everlasting quality and unfading aesthetics.
