Brera
Brera stems from a background deeply rooted in the classic typologies of door handles, inspired by traditional Milanese handles. Historically more compact, these handles have progressively lengthened over the last twenty years, evolving in proportion and in gesture. The Brera project reinterprets this transformation with balance, combining traditional style with a contemporary sensibility to offer a designer handle able to dialogue with contemporary architecture.

Brera design story
The shape of the handle stands out for its proportioned elegance, where every detail has been carefully calibrated to ensure a refined aesthetic and a pleasant tactile sensation. The surfaces, carefully modelled, are rounded but never excessively soft, capable of conveying a sense of solidity and precision. Similarly, the dynamic lines give the object a distinctive character without slipping into an overly fluid or ephemeral aesthetic.

The design of the handle is conceived to offer a perfect blend of tradition and innovation, maintaining a strong connection with the past while at the same time dialoguing with the needs of the present.
