iota escutcheon / Sebastian Bergne

The Iota escutcheon is the continuation of the Iota project which began in 2010 with a lever handle design based on an extremely simple notion of subtraction from a supersized bar. A complete range of door furniture has now (2025) been developed and made available by acclaimed designer Sebastian Bergne and izé using the same subtractive design approach as the original handle. This design subverts, distorts and rethinks it so that the everyday becomes special.  The range is manufactured using cast recycled bronze and is available in a range of metallic and ceramic finishes.
