Coffee Machine
Coffee Machine is a set of key visual posters created for a range of coffee makers. The posters move away from the leisurely lifestyle imagery common in coffee maker promotions and focus on long-standing heritage and German engineering. A beam of light links the past to the present in each scene. Four product series are given four themes: industrial components, technological innovations, global landmarks, and engineering marvels. Gears, circuit chips, miniature architecture and cosmic planets serve as visual metaphors. The scenes were built and rendered in 3D software.
