Design Artists Gone Wild on Espresso Machines

What if we had a bunch of creative design folks that could come up with an espresso machine that worked but was also a piece of art… yup, what if.

Well, the group at YankoDesign reached out and have some real fun hardware that begs to be in our kitchens. The Design site has many fun coffee and espresso ideas. Like, cups that make a coffee in it’s self. Here are a few machines that are note worthy – we can dream…

A design by Adam Zerbib. Who said making two espressos at the same time they have to be made with the same coffee grounds. Those interesting looking cups to the right are just that, a handy stack of artsy cups. Take a look at the full write up…

Next is a All-In-One espresso maker by Soren Henssler. Sporting a bean holder for just-in-time grinding as well a water bin. This offering is nice in the office or home counter. I’m not as sure about usability with the water and beans on different sides, but then we are just dreaming here. Looks great and brags that it’s easy to clean…

Finally, while this maker is a stand alone table which you might see in an airport, it will be great anywhere in your home. The Maurizio Maiorana designed espresso maker is a stand up table that is completely self contained… it even has it’s own trash can.
