The conceptual 'Apple Drip' coffee maker has been designed by Young Geon Ahn as a witty kitchen appliance that follows on the design language of the namesake technology brand.
The coffee maker features a tubular constriction that's inspired by the 2013 Apple Mac Pro and boasts a similarly all-black finish. The coffee brewer only features a dispenser nozzle sticking out of the side as a small deviation from the design and will otherwise appear as a high-end technology solution on the modern kitchen counter.
The conceptual 'Apple Drip' coffee maker boasts a series of three buttons on the top for controlling the brewing, while an adjacent hatch allows for water and coffee loading. The appliance maintains a minimalist yet functional construction.
