SUEDE STUDIO AND ROCKY MOUNTAIN HARDWARE CONTINUE THEIR COLLABORATION WITH AN EXTENSION OF THE PHASES COLLECTION. FIRST INTRODUCED AS A STUDY IN MOVEMENT, TRANSITION, AND THE CHAPTERS OF DAILY LIFE, PHASES NOW EXPANDS WITH THE BLISS LEVER AND THE DILEMMA CABINET PULL, TWO ADDITIONS THAT CARRY THE COLLECTION’S SCULPTURAL LANGUAGE FROM CABINETRY AND BATH INTO DOORS, DRAWERS, AND SPACES BETWEEN.
DESIGNED BY JENNIFER HOEY OF SUEDE STUDIO AND HANDCAST BY ROCKY MOUNTAIN HARDWARE IN HAILEY, IDAHO, THE NEW PIECES BALANCE SOFTNESS AND STRUCTURE. CURVED FORMS MEET CLEAN GEOMETRY, WHILE SOLID BRONZE GIVES EACH LEVER AND PULL A SENSE OF WEIGHT IN THE HAND. AVAILABLE IN A RANGE OF ROCKY MOUNTAIN HARDWARE FINISHES, THE PIECES CAN READ QUIET AND TONAL, DARK AND ARCHITECTURAL, POLISHED OR MORE EXPRESSIVE.
The Phases Collection
“THE COLLECTION IS INTENDED TO FEEL SUBSTANTIAL, WARM, AND HIGHLY ARCHITECTURAL WHILE REMAINING FUNCTIONAL FOR EVERYDAY USE.”
For Rocky Mountain Hardware, the collaboration is a story of hands-on manufacturing. Each piece is cast in the company’s foundry from bronze made with 90% post-consumer recycled material, then finished and refined by hand. The process allows for some variation and texture, which gives bronze its unique character.

“EVERY ROOM IS ITS OWN PHASE, WITH BLISS, WE NOW HAVE THE LEVER BETWEEN THEM, THE HARDWARE THAT CARRIES YOU FROM ONE PART OF YOUR DAY TO THE NEXT.”
