"TOTAL Door Lever handle on rose
Finish : Super Bronze Satin
Material : Brass
Total was the first handle I developed with Olivari. I would define it a shared concept. I launched the idea of a geometrical, sharp-edged handle that was almost elementary. They answered with a technological possibility that went on to become the support and the main character of the handle: the absolute absence of a rose.

MATERIAL Brass
TYPOLOGY Square
The technical and mechanical solution is combined in a single block, which allowed for the integration of the classic rose, making the solid body of the connector between lever and door become one component. For its part, the lever is a simple, thin parallelepiped made from a length of ribbon.
Let’s say this was a coinciding piece of teamwork. They were game; I was game; the handle was born. — Rodolfo Dordon
