extended lever handle / Walter Gropius

by ize

Architect-designed archetypal modernist lever handle

First put into mass production in 1923, this handle designed by Walter Gropius was the most influential of all modernist door handles. Originally designed for the Fagus factory in Alfeld, the simple, rational lever produced by iz is composed of a cylindrical grip and a cranked, squared stem, its formal language exemplifying the constructivist and machine aesthetics of the Bauhaus at their most radical and effective. It was the most commercially successful product to emerge from the Bauhaus and, arguably, the archetypal modernist handle. The handle here is an extended version.



Like all iz luxury door hardware, the lever handle is available in the full range of iz materials.
