Yorkshire-based design consultancy is pleased to present their latest product design, "Peel," a sleek coffee machine. The ultramodern countertop device is characterized by its "elegantly crafted surfaces that peel away to reveal an eye-catching waterfall of rich coffee."Inspired by the drip of flowing coffee, the stimulating rippled stainless steel base plate helps the user locate their coffee mug for brewing. Both the top and bottom plates are crafted from pressed stainless steel, with their edges falling away into a sea of soft blue light surrounding them. The stainless steel hot plates are encircled by glowing LED bands of soft blue light to indicate when the machine is brewing.
Brewing coffee on dark mornings is made easier by soft glowing LED bands and a simplified user interface that light up the room with colour.
While the luminescent elements are meant simply to attract the eye, the stylized base houses the water reservoir.Intricate 3D lines seamlessly link the upper and low halves of the machine through an unbroken jet black polished band that contrasts with the satin matte body construction.
The perpendicular surfaces and sharp rear corner sit impeccably within the kitchen environment, disguising the internal piping structure which transports the boiled water from the base.
Of course, the "Peel" coffeemaker also has standard features such as the "removable 1.5L water reservoir, a steamer and settings for single or double strength."

Hello,Ray Hu,I am interested in your design,pls add me in whatsapp:+8613656040522 skype:Queenna cheng thank you .or you can send mail to me ,my mail address is Queenna_cheng@163.com
I also have concerns around the rippled baseplate. There doesn't seem to be any drainage which means spillover will collect in the troughs of the ripples and be unsightly and difficult to clean.
The technivorm has to be one of the ugliest things I have ever seen.
Who is this meant for (aside from people with excess corner space in their kitchens?)
Why is the "simplified user interface" located on the bottom chunk? Where does the water go in? The coffee? What shape are the coffee filters? Why doesn't it have a dedicated carafe? Why are there funny little creases on the platform where coffee goes? How will I clean those little creases when I spill coffee? What if my mug is larger than one of those ripples in the base platform?
How is that part going to be molded?
Stick with the Technivorm Moccamaster, people.
