Ruby red - the colour of emotion

Throughout his life, the architect, sculptor and painter Rupprecht Geiger has been preoccupied with the colour red. "Red is the color, red is beautiful. Red is life, energy, potency, power, love, warmth, strength. Red makes you high". Charge your door with HEWI's favourite ruby red colour.

Steel blue - This colour brings a piece of sky to the doorstep

Buildings that reach up to the clouds have existed in architecture for thousands of years. The lack of space at ground level led to entire cities building upwards. On cloudless days, the sky is reflected in the steel and glass constructions of our skyscrapers, creating an impressive play of colours. Bring your favourite steel blue HEWI colour into your home like the owners of this modernised bungalow in Hamburg. 

Aqua - The colour as wide as the sea

Do you also enjoy that sense of calm that spreads when you look out over the wide, blue sea?! That’s not unusual. Because blue has a calming effect on our vegetative nervous system. With the favourite colour Aqua from HEWI, you can bring moments of calm into every room.

May green - this colour exudes springtime

To the human eye, green is the most most pleasant colour. It says spring, fertile meadows, fields or forests. HEWI's favourite colour May green brings a refreshing look to every door, and not just in spring time.

Apple green - door handles in this colour make you want to take a bite

Green evokes associations like naturalness, spring and freshness. The colour is said to bring about calm and relaxation. Green stands for harmony by consisting of a balanced mixture of prominent yellow and restrained blue. Targeted splashes of green loosen up the atmosphere of a room. Freshness at the door conjures up System 111 in apple green.

Pure white - reduced and timeless design

"When a house is completely white, the outline of things stands out from it without any risk of error; the volumes show themselves clearly; the colours are distinct. The white is absolute, everything stands out most clearly from it, as if black on white, honest and reliable." [Le Corbusier] in L'Art décoratif d'aujourd'hui, 1925

Even today, white stands for timeless, reduced design. Discover System 111 in pure white.

Signal white - purity in its "highest colour"

In architecture, white stands for purity. "White creates a neutral surface on which the experience of a room is built", writes the contemporary architect Richard Meier. Doors can be designed with HEWI's favourite colour Signal White.

Light grey - this colour discreetly shapes the room

Lighter than grey and darker than white. Just a hint of a grey tone bathes the room in calm and harmony. HEWI's favourite colour light grey represents modern understatement in door design and can be ideally combined with many other colours.  

STONE grey - this colour brings rocky nature into the home

Natural stone as well as exposed concrete have long since become established in aesthetically sophisticated building projects and are in vogue - just like HEWI's favourite colour stone grey. Continue your architecture down to the smallest detail in grey tones and discover stone grey for your doors.

Anthracite grey - This colour gives a door handle a metallic shimmer

The HEWI colour anthracite grey has its origins in the anthracite coal of the same name - a particularly high-quality form of coal. When the light falls correctly, it has a metallic shimmer. Bathroom design in anthracite gives the bathroom area a noble appeal. Get your expressive favourite colour anthracite grey from HEWI on your doors.

Jet black - Not a colour, but a statement

The black clothing of creative people, such as architects, designers, intellectuals or actors, is possibly a widespread cliché. Opinions differ as to why people in artistic professions like to wear black. One explanation is that black provides the optimal stage. Black does not reflect the light. Black takes a back seat and makes designs and ideas look all the more impressive. System 111 in deep black transforms your doors into a stage entrance. Strong contrasts in black and white? Or an expressive door consistently in black? Let your creativity run free.

Sand - This colour makes you feel the sun, the beach and sand

Beige tones have always been popular in architecture. Natural stone, such as sandstone, have been used in many, many architectural styles. And aren't our ephemeral buildings on the beach also in this colour?! Doors in HEWI's favourite colour, sand, have an earthy, discreet look.

By the way: You can discover how much the surface of a door handle influences our perception of the room in our article Door handle design - the power of the surface.

Umbra - A door handle in this, radiates warmth

Umbra belongs to the colours of the earth and sets homely accents at the door with a warm tone. The colour universe of earth tones is predestined to design our interiors. Because we humans love everything that has to do with nature. With the favourite HEWI colour Umbra, you can bring striking but warm contrasts to your doors.

Edition matt

Good to know: System 111 as matt edition creates an exciting contrast between practicality and sensuality. Perfect deep black, rich white or restrained anthracite grey emphasise the matt surface of the polyamide door handle.
