Glass vetro has always been part of our architectural language and often becomes a defining element in our projects. From this simple reflection came the idea of developing an interior door handle in which glass would be the protagonist, with metal reduced to the sole function of structural support. The result is an essential form, enhanced by the purity and transparency of the material. Matteo e Renzo Piano
Mare is a handle with a rigorous and essential design, offered in three different glass tones: transparent, fumé and bronzed and presented in combination with the various brass finishes. Through these multiple combinations, the handle is able to adapt to different contexts, giving a sense of “total look” to the environment in which it is used.

Mare, which evokes nature and the sea itself, with its infinite shades of transparency and movement, pays homage to the power and beauty of the nature that inspired the creation and that is home to the two designers, natives of Genova.
