La cupola
Espresso coffee maker
$150.00
Almost a miniature monument, La cupola coffee maker is the result of Aldo Rossi's investigation over the years, seeking a synthesis between architecture and product design. A coffeehouse-temple, at once a tower and a basilica, with clear references to the forms and proportions of existing architectural works, La cupola celebrates the coffee ritual with ironic blending of the sacred and the profane, pursuing the dream of a domestic landscape constructed and designed, appropriately enough, as an analogue of urban space.
