Jahn/Lykouria wanted the experience of the door handle to be like a good handshake. They saw the problem as being to design a common and well-used object that is laden with history and experience.
To put it in the London designers own words: “The first sketch was a piece of modelling clay formed by one of our own gripping hands. This experience of touch evolved through count less models all formed by hand without a singledrawing being produced. The sensuous ges tures of the hand were read faithfully by machines to return a perfect aluminium echo of the hand-crafted pieces.”
