Each piece of Utopia features a construction of different reliefs that adapts to the shape, inspired by Japanese geometries, enhancing it and giving it dynamism. The teapot has a lid that allows better handling because it fits perfectly to the hands; the cup of tea has a wider dimension to enhance the aromas of the beverage; the relief present in all the pieces was thought in a way to combine aesthetics with technology, beginning and ending subtly.

The creative concept of the brand uses the link between the salmon and the bear food chain, presented here by a chef that signs his food creations. The typology for the main name transmits strength, modernity, and a premium aspect, unlike the one used to target the products that follow a clean and sophisticated line.

Strict straight geometry and well-thought-out functionality fully corresponds to the spirit of the manifestos of those times: "what is convenient is beautiful".
