minded in this area of design and the quality of the hardware was

What’s the story behind the Made in Italy?
DANIEL TORREGROSSA
In the late 90s I decided to follow my own path and develop my per-
sonal ideas to their fullest. I was already very experienced in lever
handles since I had been working for a decade in this field, but now it
was time to go in a new direction with new concepts. In order to do
so, I had to travel to the country of design, I had to become “made in
Italy”. Italy at that time was already much more advanced and felt like
were on the same page and my concepts were understood.
