illy Art Collection收藏杯 - Olimpia Zagnoli

The Designer

This illy Art Collection designed by Olimpia Zagnoli. These sisters meet at a coffee shop. They are not really sisters, but they are as good as family. These women, with their different personalities, meet for coffee and cake. They talk and laugh, sometimes they disagree, but they always enjoy sharing. A conversation with six voices, talking about the future: six personalities, six colours, bringing a unique point of view.



Illy Art Collection

A passion for beauty and well-made objects, a deep admiration for contemporary art , and our blend’s exceptional quality all led us to combine coffee’s sensory pleasure with the aesthetic pleasure of art by rethinking an everyday object: the coffee cup.

This is how the illy Art Collections are born: small works of art in the form of a cup, numbered and signed, transforming the act of drinking an espresso into an experience that involves the senses and mind.
