FULL STORY ======================================================================The new L'OR Barista was created by Italian design company Alessi Its pleated finish is the work of designer and architect Michele De Lucchi It goes on sale this week for 159.99 (about $200 / AU$300)

French coffee company L'OR has unveiled a new pod-based espresso machine that will bring a touch of Italian style to your kitchen.

Capsule-based coffee makers are a handy way to enjoy espresso without the
mess of weighing and grinding beans, but they sometimes look rather bland and utilitarian compared to a manual espresso machine. That's not the case with the new L'OR Barista, which has a striking pleated-effect case created by Italian design company Alessi.

The ridged finish of the L'OR Barista by Alessi was created by artist, architect and designer Michele De Lucchi . De Lucchi, known for his experimental creations, has designed and restored buildings in Japan and throughout Europe, and has received scores of product design awards
throughout his career. (Image credit: L'OR) Double shots

The L'OR Barista by Alessi can take standard-size coffee pods, including L'OR and Nespresso capsules. It's also compatible with L'OR Barista XXL capsules, which contain twice as much coffee as a regular pod. This lets you easily
make a double shot of espresso (ideal for cappuccinos and lattes), or pour
two shots at once using the machine's double spout.

The new machine will be available this week direct from L'OR and from John Lewis for 159.99 (about $200 / AU$300), and will roll out more widely over
the coming months.
