Hasta La Ideas

This beautiful Iota door handle is by the prolific British Industrial designer Sebastian Bergne.

“Iota is based on an extremely simple notion of subtraction from a supersized bar. If the bent tube handle has become a ubiquitous symbol of modernity, this design subverts, distorts and rethinks it so that the everyday becomes the special. Unusually, the neck becomes the rose and the junction between handle and door becomes a single seamless, fluid sweep.”

It was originally designed in 2010 and is in production by door hardware manufacturer izé.

Bergne has teased that “work on an expanded family is now well underway,” and says we’ll be able to see it “soon.”
