Design Details
- Unique Properties
- This hardware part series tailored for cabinets includes glass shelf brackets, hinge covers, handles, push to open latches, closet rod brackets, and more, which seamlessly blends essential functionality with enhanced aesthetic appeal, compatibility, and installation efficiency, offering users a more premium and efficient hardware solution for cabinets.
- Inspiration
- Rationalist architecture of the 20th century emphasizes a perfect blend of functionality with form, and pursues a clean, rational aesthetic expression. Inspired by that, this series utilizes geometric facets and sharp lines, which breaks the stereotype of hardware being monotonous and bulky by giving a stronger 3D effect as well as a sense of lightness and dynamism, able to serve as an artistic decoration that spices up cabinets.
- Research
- Traditional custom cabinets mix hardware parts from different brands or of different styles, leading to an inconsistent design language and compromising on aesthetic appeal. The wide variety of hardware parts must be purchased separately from multiple suppliers, increasing purchase costs and management complexity. The poor compatibility between parts results in inefficient installation. To address that, this series replaces haphazard combinations with a consistent, systematic approach.
- Challenge
- The challenge was balancing aesthetic appeal and practicality. This series takes the triangle, a form with versatile geometric charm and a stable functional structure, as the core element to seamlessly fuse functionality and aesthetics. It offers two color options to accommodate diverse user preferences and cabinet styles. The semi matte light metallic tone is ideal for light colored cabinets, while the semi matte black titanium gold, upscale and mysterious, suits dark colored cabinets.
- Realization and Technology
- To meet the performance requirements of different parts, materials like cold rolled steel, zinc alloy, and ABS plastic are available. The application of electroplating or spray coating for a matte finish not only enhances aesthetic appeal but also improves wear and corrosion resistance. Various manufacturing processes like die casting, injection molding, and stamping ensure precision and consistent quality. Strict color control further guarantees visual consistency across the entire series.
- Operation and Interaction
- The series offers two door opening options. The push to open latches allow users to release cabinet doors with a gentle press, eliminating the need for handles to present a clean look. The handles featuring a gap offer an easy grip, whereby users can open or close doors easily. The glass shelf brackets with subtly rounded corners avoid accidental injuries associated with sharp corners. The push to open latches boast an integrated shell that prevents the base from detachment to safeguard users.
- Project Duration and Location
- The project started in Guangzhou in September 2023, and completed in Milan in July 2024. The product was officially launched in January 2025.
