About The Entry

The product draws inspiration from the North Star—a star of guidance that perfectly corresponds to the handle’s role as the first point of contact when opening or closing a door or window. Guided by the idea of home as both refuge and direction, the design team refined the handle’s proportions and selected precise, high-quality materials to elevate the handle beyond pure function. Each opening and closing becomes a gesture imbued with emotional value, fulfilling modern users’ dual expectations for emotional resonance and high quality.

The design forgoes unnecessary decoration, using clean, streamlined lines to echo the North Star’s clear guidance. Ergonomic proportions are carefully optimized to achieve an optimal fit to the hand and palm, an ideal lever length, and comfortable operation—balancing visual stability and comfort.

The handle is made from high-purity zinc alloy, giving it a solid, weighty feel and metallic texture, which enhances the sense of ritual every time you return home and open a door. Its surface is finished with a nano-plasma pearl-chrome UV coating, producing a soft, pearlescent glow reminiscent of the North Star’s radiance, while offering a silky, smooth handfeel. Together, these details create a refined and elegant aesthetic that blends seamlessly into modern interiors, delivering a pleasant user experience.
