British architect John Pawson deftly varies the design vocabulary of a well-known modernist handle – the “Reich Form” 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.
