Alessi Vite Stovetop Espresso Maker

The Vite espresso coffee maker is a compact piece of industrial design. Its boiler takes on the form of a screw—vite in Italian—cleverly referencing the twisting motion at the heart of its use. The interplay between natural aluminum and the colored tank highlights this mechanical inspiration, while a palette drawn from the tools and machinery of the Alessi workshop reinforces its refined, technical character.
