They may be small in size, but when it comes to making a statement, hardware proves that the tiniest details can have the biggest impact. Like jewelry for your home, knobs, pulls, and handles offer a subtle but powerful way to infuse personality, style, and even a little whimsy into your space – and the Profile collection is no exception. A new collaboration between Nest Studio and interior designer Laura Jenkins, this hardware gives cabinetry a bold, sculptural face lift.
Founded by Jessica Davis, Nest Studio has been a go-to for bespoke hardware for more than a decade. Pulling from her background as a product and interior designer at her firm Atelier Davis, she understands just how transformative hardware can be. Her inspiration ranges from Bauhaus and Art Deco architecture to pre-Colombian pyramids – always grounded in solid construction and artisanal craftsmanship that stands the test of time.
Rooted in Bauhaus-inspired design, the 10-piece Profile series strikes a balance between sharp geometry and elegant silhouettes. At its core is the Disc pull, a simple yet sculptural form that sets the tone for the rest of the collection’s expressive shapes. The coordinating Cameo pull adds a figurative twist, nodding to Jenkins’ love of Giacometti’s bronze sculptures and the whimsical, gestural drawings of Jean Cocteau.
The Dangle Drop Pull brings a fresh tactile experience with its playful configuration, while the Triangle and Circle knobs offer a minimalist punch of geometry.
Designed with versatility in mind, the collection invites customization through mix-and-match handle ends, allowing for various combinations to suit any style. The hardware is available in a range of finishes – including Blackened Bronze, Polished Brass Unlacquered, and Polished Nickel – with custom options available by request.
Though hardware is often seen as purely utilitarian, the Profile collection reimagines it as a canvas for personal expression, merging form, function, and a sense of fun.
