The Design
About Luzern Kagamitang Pangkusina
Ang Luzern ay isang koleksyon ng mga kagamitang pangkusina na idinisenyo para sa pang-araw-araw na pagluluto. Ang bawat kagamitan ay hinubog bilang iisang piraso, na nag-aalis ng mga hakbang sa pagsasama-sama at nagpapababa ng gamit na materyales at paggawa. Ang materyal ay glass fibre reinforced polypropylene, na pinili dahil sa katigasan, tibay, at kaligtasan para sa pagkain. Ang mga kagamitan ay lumalaban sa init hanggang 210 degrees Celsius at nananatiling malambot upang maiwasang magkalmot ang mga non-stick na kawali at kaldero. Ang bawat piraso ay may sukat na 325 by 110 by 95 milimetro at may bigat na 38 hanggang 58 gramo. Ang mga hawakan ay hinubog para sa komportableng pagkapit.

- Production Technology
- Injection-molded, glass-fibre reinforced PP material.
- Design Challenge
- There was not much of a research challenge for this project since kitchen utensils have been around for a very long time. Also, in terms of manufacturing and materials, the choice to us glass-reinforced PP was straight forward. PP is commonly used, food-safe has excellent properties and reinforced with glass, has the stiffness needed for the job.
- Research
- The initial design phase was straight forward since the client knew exactly what kitchen utensils he wanted. We also knew from the beginning that we needed them to be in injection-molded plastic, requiring zero assembly steps.
Based on this simple design brief, we focused our research on different ergonomic handle options, while fine-tuning the material properties. It helped that the tooling and production would be handled in Germany, which is known for very high-quality manufacturing. - Inspiration
- In essence, our goal was to create a one-piece design for each utensil which would be stiff enough for daily use, while also being ergonomic in its use. Usually, this would not be much of a difficulty when using metal as a base material. But since this was supposed to be a budget-line of utensils, plastics were the obvious choice. To achieve stiffness while maintaining excellent ergonomics, we had to reinforce standard PP material with glass filler, while paying most attention to the sculpting.
- Project Duration
- The project lasted from April 2017 until July 2017 in Hong Kong
- Operation Flow
- If you love to cook, you only want to use the best tools available. And if you own expensive non-stick pans and pots, then metal utensils are out of the question. Only soft kitchen utensils made of plastic or wood, help prevent scratches. But if you want something light, stiff, ergonomic and durable, then Luzern kitchen utensils are the right choice. Not only do they avoid scratching your expensive pans and pots, but they also fit perfectly in your hand.
