The Seppl Espresso Machine is for those who take their coffee seriously. A stunning machine to say the least, it is a sculptural take on classic coffee makers. Instead of using traditional metal and plastic materials, this espresso machine is predominantly made out of porcelain and wood.
Designed by Arvid Hausser, a German product design student at the Bauhaus Universität Weimar, the Seppl Espresso Machine is a beautiful contraption. It would add character to any kitchen setting. The design is also practical. Since it is supposed to be mounted on the wall, it frees up much-needed counter space. Each component of the Seppl Espresso Machine is made visible to the user as well in order to make the process of coffee preparation comprehensible for the user.
