Solution

The Pro and Master series are professional kitchens, made to pass on the best Italian recipes to the next generation. We focused heavily on the ergonomics of knobs and controls to ensure that the human-product interaction was as natural as possible.

The Master series was also awarded the prestigious Red Dot Award in 2018.
