01 — On Us
Designed by An Interior Designer Engineered to endure
AURELIO began in the middle of 2020 out of a clear professional frustration. After graduating in 2008 and spending over a decade importing premium modular kitchens from Italy and designing luxury residential spaces, founder Minni Bansal noticed a persistent void in the Indian market.
While furniture and cabinetry had evolved into clean, Scandinavian, and Danish architectural lines, the hardware to open them remained stuck in the past. The market was flooded with over-complicated, low-durability zinc alloys or prohibitively expensive brass.
Minni took to AutoCAD to sketch an alternative: a brand built on honest, straight-line essentials. A system of door hardware that doesn't scream for attention but quietly perfects the most frequent touchpoint in your home.

Founder & Lead Designer
The
Whole-Home Void.
When you build a house, harmony matters. Yet, designers and homeowners are constantly forced to mix-and-match mismatched hardware from four different vendors just to trim a single room
Aurelio was founded to fix this fragmentation. Minni’s design philosophy is centered on The Whole-Home Family. We create unified collections where your main door handles, internal bedroom levers, and kitchen cabinetry hardware all speak the exact same minimalist design language.
We don't make hyper-stylized "designer" pieces that look outdated in a year. We make the ultimate basics—the Uniqlo of the door world—built with German engineering standards and refined for global sensibilities.
03 — How We Build It
From Sketch Precision Turn.
Every single Aurelio piece travels a deliberate path from a technical blueprint to your door. Nothing is outsourced to mass-market factories, and no lines are accidental.
i.
The Drawing
Every handle begins as a precise AutoCAD engineering layout drawn by Minni. The focus is entirely on straight lines, Danish minimalism, and removing human friction from the daily grip
ii.
The Material Standard
While the Indian market heavily relies on cheap zinc castings that warp and degrade, Aurelio uses a heavy, solid-engineered metal base. It gives the handle a definitive weight, a solid structural core, and a flawlessly smooth finish that won't pit or peel.
iii.
The Finish Family
Our core collections are finished in a unified palette—Satin Brass, Matt Black, Antique Brass, and Tobacco. This allows architects and homeowners to specify an entire project under one cohesive aesthetic banner.
