Earthy Coffee Makers

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Linje Espressomaker Brings Nature to the Kitchen

— February 18, 2011 — Lifestyle
I love high-tech coffee machines that do all sorts of crazy things, but sometimes, simplicity is better as is the case with the Linje Espressomaker.

Designed by Øystein Helle Husby, the inspiration behind the Linje Espressomaker was to create a machine that stays true to Nordic designs. So the designers sculpted and sanded down poplar wood as the main source of material to create the espresso maker. More importantly, the designers wanted consumers to experience Nordic coffee through the experience of making it from the machine in addition to the drink itself.
Trend Themes
1. Sustainable Kitchen Appliances - The Linje Espressomaker showcases the trend of using natural materials like poplar wood for sustainable kitchen appliances.
2. Minimalist Design - The Linje Espressomaker represents the trend of minimalist design in home coffee machines, focusing on simplicity and functionality.
3. Authentic Coffee Experience - The Linje Espressomaker taps into the trend of providing consumers with an authentic coffee experience by emphasizing the process of making coffee, not just the final product.
Industry Implications
1. Home Appliance Industry - The home appliance industry can explore opportunities to integrate natural and sustainable materials in their product designs, as seen in the Linje Espressomaker.
2. Kitchenware Industry - The kitchenware industry can capitalize on the trend of minimalist design by creating sleek, functional, and aesthetically pleasing coffee machines like the Linje Espressomaker.
3. Coffee Industry - The coffee industry can promote the trend of an authentic coffee experience by providing consumers with products that highlight the process of coffee-making, such as the Linje Espressomaker.
