Chelsea Wood

Chelsea, designed by Jean Nouvel, was born from the desire to overcome the traditional tubular geometry of the door handle. The project privileges the senses: a soft and enveloping shape, modelled on the imprint of the hand, and a warm, pleasant-to-the-touch material. Produced in collaboration with Riva1920 and a selection of precious and exclusive woods, Chelsea becomes a strong, iconic and highly expressive sign, capable of transforming the handle into a distinctive architectural element.
