In a rather bizarre design tie-in, BMW Designworks USA has designed a domestic-use Starbucks-branded espresso machine that goes on sale this holiday season. Apparently Starbucks realized some people were drinking coffee at home--that's no good for business--and tapped BMW-D to come up with a pro-looking machine that can be operated at home by amateurs, called the Sirena. The machine seems intended to appeal to design-savvy consumers; the propaganda video about the design of it (click "About Sirena" --> "The Making of Sirena" on the site), while somewhat operatic, is worth a gander.
