As an interior designer of long standing, with a reputation for design resolution, Felice Carlino was searching for a full-timber door pull for an accommodation pod he was designing.
“Everything I found was a combination of timber and metal, which didn’t fulfill the brief visually and neither did they feel comfortable in the hand”.
As a result he decided to design his own. His research led to the design of a handle that intuitively responds to the mechanical workings of the fingers and hands. “Fingers are made up of three joints that wrap themselves around the grip,” Carlino explains, “So we crafted a taper and radius edges so the door pull and lever would sit, easily and comfortably, in the grip of the hand – whatever the hand size.” Prototyping and development led to a product that he was finally happy to put into small local production in Australia, and then expand. The range now includes pull handles, lever handles, universal design lever handles and towel rails as well as custom finishes that take the product to a bespoke level.

In a complex world sometimes a simple act, an engagement through touch and the reassurance of contact with a solid natural material, carefully crafted and finished, is one of life’s small but significant pleasures.” Felice Carlino

KORKKI The perfect collaboration between functional and beautiful; a synthesis of arts in a simple form. Executed in a selection of sustainable, solid timbers and natural stone, the organic lines flow smoothly around the perimeter of the design, seducing with its lustrous colour and tactile warmth. A classic shape, beautifully refined and detailed. Korkki is a delightful, if not unexpected addition to the TIRAR range; unexpected in the sense that TIRAR designs will always express a sensuality that encourages interaction. KORKKI demands to be touched; the door furniture embraces the hand elegantly, the hooks invite you to drape a towel.
