LUKI HUBER

Lékué and the Swiss designer Luki Huber have developed the Lékué by Luki Huber collection in order to unite functional design with the properties of Platinum Silicone. With this new range of kitchen utensils, Lékué and the designer focus on inproving, facilitating or reinventing well-known objects or processes for both the professional and home kitchen through the use of Platinum Silicone.

The Lékué by Luki Huber collection includes, amongst other products, a Steamer, a Ice cream Mould, a new generation Makisu and a Lemon Squeezer. It was precisely for the innovative and functional design of this last product that Lékué was given the Design & Innovation award at Madrid Fusión 2007.

Moreover, in October 2007, the Lemon squeezer received a new prize: the recognized Good Design Award (Japan), rewarded the advanced design, originality and the functional and ecological qualities of this product.
