Design Sense

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

Taste
The third of five films on the relationship between design and the senses.
A celebration of the cult and culture of coffee drinking: from the youth-oriented espresso bars of the 50s to the sleekest architect-designed coffee pots of the 90s, with a detour through the soap opera lifestyle of instant coffee commercials.
To what extent is taste influenced by ritual and aesthetics and how much is this manipulated by marketing and design?
Featuring coffee connoisseurs Sir Terence Conran and Alberto Alessi.
