British architect John Pawson deftly varies the design vocabulary of a well-known modernist handle – the ‘Reich Shape” handle by Hans Poelzig – and breathes new life into it with his design in classy bronze. Pawson has re-interpreted the formal notion of a snugly nestling oval handle cross-section, an idea that has been repeatedly modified for almost a hundred years now, with the aid of a well-proportioned dimensioning system.
An FSB 1243 variant, approved for emergency exit devices under EN 179, is available along with the FSB 1242 model for standard doors. Completing the collection are frame-door handles — with and without cranking — a window handle, and the new lift-and-slide door hardware.
The latter extends FSB’s end-to-end offering to embrace prestigious, large-format sliding doors.
