You should go with B.
A and C look like door handles from old cars, and D looks like it came off a toilet tank.
Of course, it the house isn't specifically intended for the elderly or physically handicapped, Why not go with a simple knob?
If the owner wants to convert later, he can always buy a lever style handle at Home Depot, Lowes, or even Wal-Mart.

The angles of D seem appropriate to me. Although the green color does not work with the door.

Personally, I'd go for one of those bulbous, circular brass knobs and not a handle.
I'm glad it's a solid wooden door. Only then can we get serious about the whole feel of the thing as it opens.

Uh, yea, where does it go?
How about a push plate, and dual swing hinges, so it swings in the direction you're going, no matter what?

You could carve your own handle, like this guy.
