- A consistent and yet minimalist design language. From the cap to the barrel – new standards of elegance.
- Made of precious 925 sterling silver, immaculately finished. designC promises stability for eternity.
- Smooth in the hand. Well-balanced on paper. The matt black, PVD-coated writing unit sets qualitative and ergonomic standards.
- A slim, flawless line with the highest functionality. The index in 18-carat gold on the barrel and cap replaces the “classic” clip.
- Pull+Twist™ as filling mechanism – innovation as modernly interpreted homage to craftsmanship. A slow pulling brings the Pull+Twist™ mechanism into the filling position. Turning it clockwise creates a vacuum inside the fountain pen. The designC absorbs ink through it – as a world first, this complex mechanism is entirely consistent with the character of Otto Hutt’s 100th anniversary.
Inspired by minimalist aesthetics, soft and precise on paper. The 18-carat gold nib gives designC a unique character.
Luxuriously wrapped, addressed to collectors. designC comes in an expressive silver box. An ideal gift for lovers of fine and limited edition writing instruments.
Designed by Mark Braun and made of southern German thumbled leather. The vegetable-tanned and natural product is in harmony with sustainability, a philosophy for which Otto Hutt is internationally renowned. The elegant leather case included in the box shows that exclusivity does not end with the writing instrument.
A glass of waterproof ink as an appreciation of loyal customers. designC is completed with a very special accessory.

For many decades, the craft of the company Otto Hutt was in the hands of the Hutt family – first founded by Karl Hutt in 1920, then successfully run by his son Otto, whose name the brand still carries today. The company founder was an enthusiastic follower of the Bauhaus movement and felt highly inspired by the design language of this new school of design. As a resident of Pforzheim – the "golden city", which had earned its first-class reputation around the world through centuries of jewelry, watch, and consumer good production – he transferred the idea of the Bauhaus style to new products and founded a company for pocket consumer goods and noble writing devices made of silver.
Entirely in line with his Bauhaus contemporaries, Karl Hutt developed writing devices that distinguished themselves through the best processing and perfect functionality. The design was also inspired by the straightforward, clear, and functional Bauhaus style. In the 1960’s, he handed over the reins to his son Otto Hutt, who continued to expand the company and successfully asserted himself on the national and international market. Later, the Robert E. Huber GmbH succeeded Otto Hutt and relaunched the company’s own brand. CEO Marco Frei and Technical Director Nicole Klingel carefully revised the product portfolio and successfully continued to develop the manufacturing processes. Today, the company’s outstanding competence in terms of manufacturing competence and technical precision forms the foundation of the excellent worldwide reputation of the products by Otto Hutt.
