Through the globe looking-glass

Following the Door Hacks series, that begun with our Infopanel project and the first DH installment, we present A room in the glass globe, Hideyuki Nakayama, a prototype for a doorknob presented in 2010.

“Architect Hideyuki Nakayama teamed up with UNION, a manufacturer of door handles and levers, to create the glass globe doorknob presented at DesignTide Tokyo. It allows you to “catch a glimpse of what appears to be another world, waiting for you to enter and join” showing instead a “reflection of the room on the other side of the door”.
