The flush-mounted window handle from FSB blends visual restraint with ergonomic clarity. Designed by Markus Michalski and Michael Schmidt, the handle sits fully recessed within the window profile, fusing form and function into one.
The concept is as simple as it is clever: a precisely angled surface catches the light differently from the flat face, subtly indicating where to press. A single touch activates the recessed lever, allowing the window to be opened with ease. When not in use, the handle virtually disappears into the frame—ensuring a clean, seamless look.
The result is not only visually striking, but also remarkably ergonomic. The stainless steel grip sits comfortably in the hand and operates smoothly—an ideal solution for contemporary spaces.
Functionality of the Flush window handle
The flush construction allows blinds or other shading systems to run uninterrupted along the window—even in the handle area. For folding/sliding systems, the slim profile minimizes spacing between elements, enabling them to fully retract.
The handle is compatible with both wood and aluminum profiles and is optionally available in a lockable variant with RC-rated security for reliable protection against forced entry.
The recessed design eliminates protruding components, reducing the risk of accidental bumps—particularly important in public and high-footfall spaces.
Both trim and handle can be individually configured in a variety of materials and finishes, making it easy to match the window handle to any interior design. Whether as a subtle design element or a deliberate accent, this product adapts flexibly to the architect’s vision.
With its flush-mounted window handle, FSB sets new standards in combining aesthetic clarity with technical performance. A strong statement that minimalist design can do more than just look good—it works flawlessly, too.
