Introducing the New GL102 Handle

A Refined Addition to the RIVIO Collection by Gensler

The RIVIO collection, a collaboration with Product Design Consultant Gensler, has earned its place as a benchmark for precise design and comfortable grip. Now, this celebrated line expands with the elegant GL102 handle, a refined addition crafted to seamlessly complement the existing range. Initially developed to meet the California building code for lever return requirements, the GL102 embodies practical functionality while also elevating the ergonomic comfort synonymous with RIVIO. Its soft, flowing curves reflect a subtractive design approach. The result? A dynamic, stylish form that serves as a perfect fit—whether or not a return is required. Versatile and sophisticated, the GL102 enriches a wide array of projects, adding a touch of refinement to any space.

Transition: A Guiding Principle in Design

For Gensler, "transition" is at the heart of RIVIO’s design philosophy. The GL102 handle embodies this principle, moving gracefully from straight lines to gently curved contours, creating a seamless flow from one form to the next. At its core, the meticulously designed cutouts ensure a natural, comfortable grip for the thumb and fingers. The result is an effortless and satisfying experience every time you open or close a door. This attention to detail enhances the handle’s ergonomic appeal, setting it apart as a model of functional beauty.

Craftsmanship at Its Finest

The GL102 is a showcase of advanced craftsmanship. It is created using precise techniques like bar cutting, bending, carving, specialized milling, welding, and meticulous finishing. Each process is executed with care. The result is a handle that excels in aesthetics, ergonomics, and safety standards, reinforcing RIVIO’s commitment to quality.
