Entry Description

Contemporary Pull’s inaugural collection launched at the 2014 Architectural Digest Home Design Show. These artisan crafted, recessed pulls offer a revolutionary hardware design.

The innovative concept came about when the designer became frustrated searching for creatively inventive cabinet hardware during her own home remodel. Realizing that today’s pulls have not progressed in form or function beyond standard knobs and pulls, she was moved to design something to fit her vision. Enlisting her husband’s engineer expertise, they worked to refine and produce a unique look for cabinet pulls. The end result was an integrated piece, completely flush with the front and back of the cabinet; minimalist, artful yet functional.

They worked with local manufacturers to create sustainable product: selecting materials, perfecting the milling, polishing and anodizing to achieve finely crafted pieces that could be produced easily. Care was given to every detail including the end process of installation. All pieces are sold with jig patterns that assist with custom fitting of the pulls.

The 2014 collection consists of four lines with a total of 31 anodized aluminum pulls, featuring simple geometric patterns in six different colors — ebony, bronze, bordeaux, peacock, canary and natural aluminum. The pieces can be placed individually or in pairs while mixing styles and colors for sophisticated and playful combinations in furniture and cabinetry.

The unique product now holds a U.S. patent and is patent pending in Europe. Contemporary Pull offers innovative designs that will, literally and figuratively, open possibilities.
