A little bit about Hannes Wettstein, he's was one of the most innovative and influential
designers in Switzerland. His background alone did not follow a standard
pattern: born in 1958, Wettstein completed an apprenticeship as a
structural engineering draughtsman and then trained himself as a
designer and architect. He was fascinated by technological developments
as well as art history and architecture; and somewhat alchemical and
ingenious, his unique way of developing ideas never disappeared. In his
own words, he questioned all norms, social, industrial, cultural and
ritual, in order to discover something new. This absoluteness was not an
attitude but a methodology. His willingness to always rethink
everything determined by design - everyday actions, organization of
rooms, the purpose of things - led him to create surprisingly simple
solutions that outlasted time. Technology transfer from design-resistant
fields, years of scientific work on an idea or a material and a fine
sense of brand quality - Hannes Wettstein shaped a world in which he
sought to comprehend the essence of things that surrounded him.
Pure,
unspectacular, functional design was the stamp of his lights and
furniture. Again and again he returned to sleek forms and classic modern
lines. These suited his vision of the world and society in that, even
before his time, he knew that only self-evident design can be endurable.
Hannes Wettstein designed elegant and perfect objects for daily use
that maintained their identity and remained timeless even in the
changing flow of fashion.
Also in room design he created archetypes:
complete and sensitive solutions for specific locations, interior
fittings or set designs. The comprehensive way in which he helped
designed the world lives on today in the company he founded in 1991,
Studio Hannes Wettstein.
Studio Hannes Wettstein had worked with many companies from furniture and lighting manufacturers, to electronics or watches and even hotels & airports. They had work with popular brands like Bosch, Braun, Carl Zeiss, Sony, Tumi, Ventura Watches, Grand Hyatt hotel just to name a few.
" Unique form, unique function, an indissoluble pairing; Sinn manifests a modern synthesis of beauty and efficiency, the choice of a clear ideology, ergonomics, and the reduction or promotion of aesthetics to a dialectical category of the useful and the rational: the eye follows the hand, the hand the body, the body the brain and the brain the eye. " Hannes Wettstein, 1991

Its been almost 2 years since we supplied this handles, due to confidential reason we are not to reveal before the opening in late 2010.
When approach by the contractors, we were to submit a few designs. At first, used our current Spanish selection of BRONCES MESTRE Art. 3650 Linea Mailand. We had then spray paint in matte black and is was accepted as the internal.

However for the external, the designers wanted something less elaborate and more robust. There were no such handles in our city and the only way is to customized.
We approach handle manufacture Grazia Italia for their technical specialty and their engineers sketched the flatten design for such. We went through many rounds of redesign, improving fittings and durability. This is the final product!

The design was then set for production and the installed handles are impressive. Thou, such handles will seldom work with our modern interiors, but this is really an interesting project for us.

This year marks the 20th anniversary for Philippe Starck with Italian handle maker KLEIS Design.
The Kleis brand name came into being in 1991, stemming from the experience and technology acquired in the RDS company’s research and development centre. RDS was originally established in 1945, specialising in the production of handles and home-furnishings in general. In a pure Bauhaus spirit, Kleis’s objective is that of challenging established designers to work on such apparently banal objects/functions as handles. Enrico Baleri and Claudio Caramel are the coordinators of the project, while Philippe Starck, Hannes Wettstein, Flavio Albanese and Riccardo Dalisi are responsible for the first designs characterised by technological innovation and the use of new or rediscovered materials such as polycarbonate or glass, stainless steel and polyurethane resins. The continuity of the brand is confirmed by the appointment of Enrico Baleri/eb&c as art director. The focus of the Kleis project is design: research interpreted through diverse idioms and enriching the symbolic role of the object, proposing the handle as a non-invasive envoy of avant-garde design.
In the design circuit, S+ARCK is definitely one of the most heard names. Establish as a Architect and also well know in product designs, especially daring and mostly iconic. From the Iconic architectures like Tokyo Asahi beer hall 1999 to Chairs, lamps, watches & almost anything else, he's done it. The S+ARCK name is very sort after for its iconic designs and thus earning him the reputation.
Asahi Beer Hall, Tokyo
Born in Paris, 1949, designer and architect. Among the world’s most sought-after product designers for his originality and prolificacy, he has also been working with architectural planning in more recent years.

He also created his own manufacturing company.
He made headlines when François Mitterand commissioned him to redecorate the interiors of the Elysée Palace in 1984. Designer of numerous chic clubs in Paris, New York and Tokyo, he is the winner of important prizes such as the Grand Prix National de la Création Industrielle (1988) and the Honor Award of the American Institute of Architetcts, 1992, for the Paramount Hotel in New York. In addition to being an active teacher,he works in every aspect of the design field, collaborating with world’s most prestigious firms in the creation of furniture, consumer goods and even vehicles.
APRITI by Philippe Starck, 1991
“Open, please, open!” Or perhaps: “don’t open that door!” Starck plays on our dreams and fears, two arching line converging in a surprisingly sensual, technical and graceful form that references the Napoletano cornet.
Some say it looks like Chili while some say it looks like a sperm, you decide.

SESAMO by Philippe Starck, 1991
Provocative, transgressive, sarcastic, Sesamo has the volume of a knob, but in reality that volume’s virtual, it’s empty; it has the winged structure of a handle, but this wing’s nothing
more than an accent. A design wrong-footing the eye and the hand, an invitation to play, to have a different take on things.
