Series guide
That is the idea behind Lago. Designer Claus Harttung translated the movement of water into softly flowing lines and gently undulating curves. Nothing in the collection feels rigid or abrupt. Instead, the pieces seem to move from handle to functional end in one continuous gesture — giving stainless steel an unexpectedly fluid character.
Lago means lake in Italian, and the name points directly to the collection’s inspiration. Its curved profiles and concentrated forms evoke the movement and surface of water rather than reproducing a literal maritime motif. The reference is subtle: you do not see waves engraved into the steel, but you sense their rhythm in the shape.
Because Lago combines elegance with an unmistakable sense of ease. Its maritime character feels naturally connected to life beside — or on — the water, while the restrained design avoids anything overtly nautical. A yacht deck, a coastal lunch or a table at home can therefore belong to the same design world.
Through proportion and movement rather than decoration. Lago’s softly rounded transitions invite the eye to follow the shape continuously, while the smooth 18/8 stainless steel reinforces that tactile impression in the hand. Robbe & Berking describes the collection as having an almost sensual appeal — a quality created by shape rather than embellishment.
Lago was designed by Claus Harttung. Instead of treating stainless steel as something rigid and technical, he created a collection defined by softness, lightness and maritime expression. The result is a design whose identity becomes clearer the longer you look at its curves.
