Garda design story

Garda, 1951

For its essential line and spare language, Gardella says he drew inspiration from the German rationalist architect Ferdinand Kramer, who had taken part in the urban visions of Neue Frankfurt by Ernst May, designing a handle with elementary geometry.

Gardella studies the proportions of his handle starting from a cylindrical element.
