About Punto Gagang Pintu

Punto adalah gagang pintu yang dirancang untuk pintu sehari-hari. Bentuk Punto lahir dari riset terhadap gagang-gagang bersejarah beserta ragam bentuknya. Proporsinya mengikuti rasio tetap satu banding dua, dan relasi ini menautkan seluruh geometri pada gagang tersebut. Punto berukuran 150 kali 60 kali 50 milimeter. Gagang ini dibuat dengan teknik pengecoran cetak (die casting) berbahan aluminium atau kuningan. Versi aluminium dilapisi cat bubuk (powder coating), sedangkan versi kuningan dipoles atau dikrom. Bentuknya yang disederhanakan membantu pengguna langsung memahami cara membuka pintu.
