Ariston Built-In Coffee Center 'Replicates' Hot Drinks on Demand
Meghan Young — October 19, 2009 — Art & Design
Although the Ariston Built-in Coffee Center really is nothing like Star Trek’s food replicator, I can’t help but be reminded of it. I long for that day when food can be synthesized on demand. The path humanity is currently heading on, I wouldn’t be surprised if at this moment, Scientists were trying to figure it out.
For now, however, the Ariston Built-in Coffee Center will have to satisfy us. This state-of-the-art, in-wall brewing system is guaranteed to bring luxury to any kitchen. Although the price is pretty steep ($2,150-$2,260), it offers a range of hot drinks in addition to its stylish exterior.
