About 308a Machin Kafe
308a se yon machin kafe milti-kapsil ki fèt pou itilizasyon lakay ak nan biwo. Machin nan aksepte kapsil, pod ak kafe moulen, epi li prepare espresso, kafe long, te ak bwason ki baze sou lèt. Yon ponp presyon ak chofaj rapid sipòte yon ekstraksyon konsistan ak krema. Tanperati ak volim ka ajiste pou diferan gou. Kò a fèt ak ABS ki moule pa enjeksyon avèk sifas kontini ak tranzisyon dous ki redwi konpleksite vizyèl la. Yo mete kapsil la, yo fèmen manch anlè a epi yo chwazi bwason an atravè entèfas taktil la.

- Design Challenge
- The creative challenge was to design a coffee machine that feels friendly and approachable while standing out in a crowded market of technical-looking products. The goal was to achieve a fluid, compact form with continuous surfaces that visually soften the object and reduce perceived complexity. The design avoids aggressive geometries, aiming instead for a balanced and timeless aesthetic that can naturally fit into different environments, from domestic kitchens to office spaces.
- Research
- The design research began with a detailed benchmark analysis of existing single-serve coffee machines, identifying limits in compactness, visual coherence, and user perception. Early concepts were explored through sketches to define proportions and fluidity, followed by 3D models to refine volumes around internal components. Prototyping was used to validate ergonomics and visual balance. CMF studies finalized the design, enhancing surface continuity, tactile quality, and integration in different environments.
- Inspiration
- The design is inspired by the idea of fluidity and the expressive nature of liquid in motion. Soft, continuous surfaces flow seamlessly from one volume to another, creating a sense of natural continuity and visual calm. The form avoids sharp interruptions, favoring smooth transitions that recall the movement of water and coffee extraction itself. This fluid geometry conveys lightness, precision, and harmony, transforming a compact machine into an intuitive and elegant object.
- Project Duration
- Italy, 03/2022 to 06/2022
- Operation Flow
- The machine is designed for intuitive and seamless operation. The user inserts the preferred capsule or coffee pod, using the dedicated holder, close the top handle, selects the desired beverage setting through the touch interface, and starts brewing with a single action. Visual indicators guide each step, while automatic dosing and flow control simplify the interaction, creating a smooth and effortless coffee-making experience.
