The conica, the first espresso coffee maker project by architect Aldo Rossi, was born from a play of simple geometric shapes that form a mini table architecture, with a concise and elegant style. A timeless icon, the conica has a stainless steel body and a copper bottom: a refined object, with essential geometric lines that give life to a functional tool with which to prepare and serve coffee.
Available for 3 and 6 cups

The 9091 kettle has a melodic brass whistle with a new shape, made up of two small pipes in which choristers are inserted which reproduce the notes E and B. Richard Sapper created it inspired by a childhood memory, the poetic sound of the sirens of the boats on the Rhine river: because the melody that accompanies the release of the steam must be pleasant, not anxiety-provoking like the typical whistle of kettles. The 9091 kettle is a multi-sensorial object, which will not interrupt a pleasant pause with a whistle, but with an enveloping melody.
For the Girotondo tray the two King-Kong designers – Stefano Giovannoni and Guido Venturini – chose an extremely basic shape, wanting to work exclusively on the decoration.
