Arlen Walsh - Minor Design Project

Project

This minor product design project involved creating a coffee grinder and la cafetier by blending
the distinctive style of a chosen designer with a personal design approach. The process focused
on analysing the designer’s key aesthetics, materials, and forms, then re-interpreting those
elements through an individual creative lens. The result is a unique product that reflects both
the influence of an established design language and the designer’s own emerging identity,
combining functionality with a strong visual narrative.

Designer

Monaco Coffee Set is a tribute of the Eileen Gray’s work in the design
world for her 95th anniversary of the E1027 villa. Eileen Gray inspired
generations of designers through their minimal and aesthetic
products, being an icon of the Modernism and art deco. This coffee
press and coffee grinder reflect the essence of Eileen in the materials,
simplicity and forms of the design.
