Description
Vite Espresso Coffee Maker - AlessiSuitable for all types of cooktops, including induction, the Vite espresso coffee maker is a small industrial sculpture. The boiler resembles a screw (vite in Italian), a direct reference to the gesture of its use. The natural aluminium further emphasises this reference and gives espresso a rounded, full bodied taste. The result is a moka that expresses exactly how it works: a precise everyday tool. PRODUCT INFORMATION Designer Philippe Malouin

ABOUT ALESSI
For over a century, Alessi has been creating extraordinary objects that make people dream, feel, think and experience poetry in their daily lives. By collaborating with the best creative minds from around the world, Alessi brings the most unexpected and contemporary expressions of design culture into people’s homes.
The Italian company was founded in 1921 by Giovanni Alessi and initially concentrated on metal kitchenware. His products and designs of coffee pots became so popular, that by 1924 the brand name ‘Alessi’ was well established.
By the 1950s the company broadened its approach, deciding to collaborate with well-known designers. The aim was to break away from modernism and even traditional designs and to try more unconventional design ideas, including those from groups such as Studio Alchima (Alessandro Mendini) and Memphis (Ettore Sottsass). Other designers associated with Alessi include Aldo Rossi, Philippe Starck and Michael Graves. The collaborative and creative approach they use has become the hallmark of the Alessi brand.
Alessi is now a B Corp, a company which strives to maximise the positive impact they have on their employees, the communities in which they operate and the environment, by using the business as a force for regeneration and sustainability.
