“Perfectly imperfect” is a door handle with an original shape.
An unusual “gesture” like a fold; highlights an unexpected aesthetic and structural element. Steel, an indestructible material in the common imagination, bends like grass in the wind. Here the imperfection becomes the handle itself, making it unique. Visually imperfect; but structurally perfect. Last but not least, the entire life cycle of the object has almost zero impact on the environment: the handle is folded in a completely mechanical way.

Bio
Francesco Sommacal, founder of the Zerofra Design studio (Italy), deals with industrial product design and visual communication.
