illy - Piero Lissoni - Coffee maker - 642 - Plastic - Illy coffee machine

Illy is a historic Italian company specialized in coffee production; founded in 1933 in Trieste, today it ranks among the world leaders in the sector. Piero Lissoni is another pride of Made in Italy: an architect, designer, and art director known on the international scene, who has received numerous prestigious awards throughout his career.

Well then, from the partnership between Illy and Piero Lissoni, a compact, easy-to-use coffee machine with an elegant and minimalist design has been born. It is the Illy Y3 coffee machine designed, as the name itself suggests, primarily for Generation Y (born between 1980 and 2000).

Presented at Salone del Mobile 2017, Illy Y3 is only 10 cm wide, imagine that. The height is 29.8 cm, the depth 25.4 cm.

The Y3 from Illy represents the perfect blend between refined design and functionality. Created by the famous architect Piero Lissoni, this compact machine stands out for its essential and versatile lines, capable of integrating elegantly into any kitchen. Thanks to the exclusive Iperespresso technology, you can enjoy at home a coffee of superior quality, with that aroma and body richness that characterizes the Illy method. A sophisticated addition that transforms your daily coffee ritual.
