One of the UK's most respected industrial designers, Terence Woodgate has become known for a stripped-down, elegant modern approach to design with close attention to detail and manufacture. The Eccentric Door Knob has an element of surprise when operating: unlike any other knob it is not centred on the lock but placed asymmetrically so that its action appears somewhere between that of a lever and that of a knob. This incongruity of combining the simplicity of form with the complexity of motion makes it a unique and delightful object.
