At the heart of East Bank’s cultural quarter, the new London College of Fashion campus brings together 5,000 students and faculty under one roof for the first time. Designed as a 21st-century workshop, the building takes inspiration from the robust simplicity of 19th-century mill architecture, offering adaptable spaces that support the evolving needs of fashion education.
In line with the building’s unpretentious and purposeful design, d line was chosen to supply a coordinated hardware package that meets the demands of daily use while quietly enhancing the architectural narrative. Products specified for the project include the iconic L lever handle, pull handles, push plates and other hardware solutions, all crafted in AISI 316 stainless steel for durability and resistance.
Built for longevity, d line hardware was selected not only for its minimalist aesthetic but also for its ability to perform in a busy, high-traffic environment. With a 20-year warranty and the possibility for re-handle, our products support the project's wider sustainability ambitions, delivering both circular value and enduring functionality.
This new chapter for the London College of Fashion represents a bold investment in the future of creativity and craft. We’re proud to support that vision with architectural hardware that’s made to last, designed responsibly, and built to perform beautifully for generations.

Throughout the building, d line fittings provide a cohesive visual language that complements the raw materials and refined detailing of the interiors. They are part of the everyday experience -touched, used and trusted by thousands of students and staff, day in and day out.
