Laser is a design handle that expresses a rigorous approach to industrial design, founded on a progressive refinement of form. The design was born from a long work of balance and modelling, in which every detail is calibrated until reaching an essential synthesis. The result is a contemporary handle with a clear and precise sign, capable of combining formal clarity, functionality and timeless elegance, ideal for architectures attentive to the quality of the project and the everyday gesture.

Laser,
 1998

The initial idea was to create a solid, secure handle that is comfortable to grip and, at the same time, rigorous in its line. The design solution for Laser was refined by working on the double curvature of the grip’s cross-section and imparting a slight rotation along the axis to enhance its ergonomics.

Applied to the handle, this development methodology, which progresses through successive phases starting from a design idea, led to the result of an impeccable function.
