Pittella’s multifunctional Como and Bellagio are sophisticated components of architectural hardware made from solid brass, and designed to be used in a variety of applications throughout the home- they perform effortlessly as handles, hooks, joinery pulls and knobs.
Owner and director Simone Pittella conceived the Como and Bellagio for an architectural client seeking to create hardware that could seamlessly serve in a range of residential applications. “Continuity is very important in interior design and the Como and Bellagio bring consistent detail to a home, linking rooms by way of refined and versatile hardware,” Pittella says.
The Como and Bellagio, named for the region of northern Italy in which they are manufactured, express the superior craftsmanship inherent in all Pittella products. Each component has a flat surface that gently angles away from the wall and a rear fixing system engineered to be barely visible when in use. The formal variations between the Como and Bellagio are subtle yet enable them to transition between classical and contemporary design: Como has a smooth organic and rounded form, while the Bellagio takes on an elongated shape with pronounced corners and edges.
The hardware is available in seven finishes – tumbled brass, polished brass unlacquered, oil rubbed bronze, polished chrome, satin chrome, satin brass and black opaque – that enhance its adaptability to various interior styles. “The Como and Bellagio are very well suited to diverse styles of interior design, it all depends on the story being told. The Bellagio in black opaque is a smart choice for more edgy contemporary design, while the Como in polished brass is softer and more traditional for classic interior design,” Pittella says.
The Como and Bellagio are available in three different sizes that can all be applied to the same variety of purposes and the rear fixing system enables the hardware to be surface mounted or fitted back to back for operational doors. Available widths include 40, 60 and 80 millimetres while heights vary by width and style.
