Design Paradiso – Senti che aroma
The design solution developed in this project is dedicated to the moment of first waking in the morning. The pleasure of this moment consists in the possibility of sensing the coffee, from the perspective of taste, aroma and even the sound. The taste of coffee is derived as much from the aroma as from the taste. The design piece therefore is focused on the lid, to conserve the aroma of the coffee; it was invented for taking coffee to bed, promising the best possible awakening in the morning. The object is in the form of a cone and holds a secret: it transforms itself into a little bell that will wake you in a much more gentle manner than the invasive sound of the alarm clock.
