alessi limited edition tea & coffee towers by will alsop
will alsop: “the occasion for smoking a cigar and enjoying a coffee is an event. when this time is shared with someone else, or a small group, it has the capacity to transcend all the pressures of modern life. the accoutrements of partaking in these simple acts of life are as a stage set upon which the performers are encouraged to give of their best. my design will sit in the centre of a table and furnish all with their desires. an ash tray, bob-bon dish, tea, coffee etc. will all be on hand to facilitate the occasion. the meeting, in memories, will feed the sense of well-being all the longer due to the quiet presence of a beautiful object on the table.” designed with federico grazzini
