Once again Leonardo handle designed by the architect Fabrizio Bianchetti and produced by Ghidini Group was presented inside in an interesting article on design and disability, signed by the journalist Florian Bardou and published online on Sunday 12th November 2023 and in print’s edition of Thursday 16th November 2023 on the prestigious (*) French newspaper Libération.
The Leonardo Project renews the relationship with the object handle directing it towards an expanded use as it is really usable by children, adults, the elderly or people on wheelchairs. A simple and "massive" design determines the smart forms of the handle and allows the user to hold it at different heights. An innovative and pleasing shape solves accessibility issues and the easiness of use without formal or psychological barriers.
(*) Libération, nicknamed Libé, is a French newspaper founded in February 1973 by the philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre
