Hemispheres is Bankston's latest collaboration with Brooklyn-based design studio Civilian, led by Ksenia Kagner and Nicko Elliott. This 10-piece collection marks a departure from conventional architectural hardware featuring bold geometries, striking finishes, and innovative functions, reflecting a shared ambition to elevate the ordinary.
Civilian’s signature blend of refined playfulness is evident in the collection, mirroring their approach to both hardware and interior design. The studio's ability to seamlessly integrate materials, colours, and textures is showcased, drawing parallels with their notable projects like Sandbox Film Studio in the NYC Flatiron district, and Bard College Residence, in Berlin.
The collaboration between Civilian and Bankston showcases their mutual passion for bold design, quality materials, and a spirit of experimentation. Hemispheres celebrates beauty, quality, and reinvented tradition. It enhances environments that hint at the past, alluding to distant places and eras, while remaining distinctly modern.
