ART COLLECTION CUPS

If coffee is a passion to be experienced with all 5 senses, then all the materials we serve and even package coffee with should also appeal to the soul. illy came up with a creative idea 20 years ago, thinking that the objects we use in our daily lives should also add meaning to our lives. Simple but meaningful everyday objects like coffee cups began to be transformed into artistic objects.

With this ingenious project, illy created the illy Art Collection, adding creative touches to ceramic cups to add pleasure to your espresso experience.

Jeff Koons, James Rosenquist, Julian Schnabel, Robert Rauschenberg, Michelangelo Pistoletto and Marina Abramovic are just a few of the contemporary designers in the illy Art Collection.
