From Sketch to Table

When designing for the table, the focus is balance, restraint and the feeling of holding something that already belongs in your hand.

Questions about Sambonet Imagine Cutlery Set — 72 Pieces

What happens when the same design returns at two different scales for twelve guests?

The 72-piece Imagine set gives each guest both table cutlery and a second knife-and-fork setting for dessert. The forms become smaller, but the same balance between precision and softness remains, allowing the table to change rhythm without changing identity.

Why does a second knife and fork make Imagine more interesting rather than simply more complete?

Because it reveals how the collection adapts. Imagine is not built around one rigid shape repeated across every function. Each piece changes according to use, while the controlled lines and flowing transitions keep the entire family visually connected.

Can a table for twelve change course without visually starting again?

Imagine is designed for exactly that kind of continuity. As larger pieces give way to dessert cutlery, the scale changes but the design language remains recognisable. One course flows into the next instead of appearing as a separate visual chapter.

Why might seventy-two polished pieces make movement more visible around the table?

Imagine’s Mirror finish interacts continuously with light. Across twelve settings and two scales of cutlery, reflections shift as pieces are lifted and replaced, emphasizing the curved surfaces and making movement itself part of the visual experience.

When does a multi-course dinner begin to feel like choreography?

When every change has continuity. In the Imagine 72-piece set, twelve guests move from one knife-and-fork relationship to another while remaining within the same formal language. The meal changes tempo, but the table never loses its rhythm.
