The Design

About Punto Dörrhandtag

Punto är ett dörrhandtag designat för vardagliga dörrar. Formen på Punto härstammar från studier av historiska handtag och deras former. Proportionerna följer ett konstant förhållande mellan ett och två, och denna relation binder samman handtagets alla geometrier. Punto mäter 150 gånger 60 gånger 50 millimeter. Handtaget tillverkas genom pressgjutning i aluminium eller mässing. Aluminiumversionerna pulverlackeras, medan mässingsversionerna poleras eller kromas. Den förenklade formen hjälper användaren att direkt förstå hur dörren öppnas.
