Total
Total was born as a door handle with a rigorous and geometric language. The project introduces a radical solution: the absolute absence of the rosette, achieved thanks to the complete integration of the mechanical system within a single block. The junction between lever and door thus becomes a single, essential and architectural element. The lever, reduced to a thin parallelepiped obtained from a strip, defines a modern handle with a strong, rational and contemporary character.

With Total, the designer handle is reduced to the essential: a geometric lever, a single structural block and an integrated technical solution that eliminates any superfluous element.
