“Enduring, not ultimate form”: from “Industrieform” to Red Dot (1980 - 1997)
Airborne Beverage
Airborne Beverage is a beverage maker and dispenser that is integrated into the ceiling and suspends in a space. Its additive manufacturing process successfully hides all of the purification systems and the electric control system within the main body.
The dispenser is made of glass, cement, and stainless steel in an architectural design language. To make the product approachable and minimal, all of the materials have a white matte finish. The overall attention to detail is clean and rich.
