A design classic from Ulm
From 1952, Max Bill headed the department for architecture and product form at the HfG Ulm. Together with the student Ernst Moeckl, he developed a door handle for the university building during this time. In 2012, GRIFFWERK reedited this handle in close cooperation with the max, binia + jakob bill stiftung, following the preserved originals.

The ULMER HANDLE reedited by GRIFFWERK features the characteristic, soft transition of form from circle to ellipse. A principle based on mathematics, as Max Bill also called for in his 1946 work "the mathematical way of thinking in the art of our time". The ULMER HANDLE BY GRIFFWERK is the world's only licensed reedition and therefore entitled to bear Max Bill's signature.

DOOR HANDLE SETS
Door handle sets are door fittings that consist of door handles and the corresponding plates or rosettes and are used to open and close doors. Inside the door is a square lever handle pin, which is connected to a lever handle on both sides - via the so-called spindle part.
DOOR NAMEPLATES
Our round short plates consist of a short, circular plate that is fitted around the door handle and possibly the keyhole. Unlike long plates, which extend in length and cover both the door handle and keyhole, the short plate focuses on a smaller area and offers a compact, modern look. It is often used in interiors to provide a discreet and stylish door design.
WC-LOCKER RED/WHITE
WC closer with rotary knob. The busy indicator on the outside of the door indicates "free" in white and "occupied" in red.
