Window handle ULMER GRIFF
With respect and license
The ULMER GRIFF GRIFF reedited by GRIFFWERK shows 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 GRIFF BY GRIFFWERK is the only licensed re-edition worldwide and therefore entitled to bear Max Bill's signature.
Window handles - small design objects with great effect
Window handles are more than just practical operating elements: they are design objects. Especially on windows that you open several times a day, they have to meet a high level of technical requirements.
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 Ulm Handle by Max Bill
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.
Window handles - technical equipment
The window handles are fixed to the window frame by the standardized 7 mm square pin. How deep the square pin must be pushed into the window to lock it depends on the thickness of the window. The required pin length can be easily measured in advance using a thin object, such as a knitting needle. To do this, push the knitting needle into the opening as far as it will go and mark the spot with your fingernail. If you now measure this distance with a tape measure, you will have the pin length.
In addition, window handles from Griffwerk are equipped with a plain bearing, for a durable, smooth and, above all, noiseless function. Without costly maintenance work!
