    An icon of postmodern design, the La Conica kettle distills Aldo Rossi’s architectural vocabulary into a striking domestic object. Originally designed in 1985, its form is both sculptural and functional: a conical body crowned with a cylindrical lid, echoing the formal rigor and geometric clarity of Rossi’s buildings.

    Crafted in polished stainless steel with a copper base, the kettle is as much a collectible design artefact as it is a tool of daily ritual. Its presence on the stove or shelf is bold yet restrained—an object that transforms the act of boiling water into a moment of aesthetic reflection.

    Part of Alessi’s vision of design as poetry, the kettle exemplifies how modernism can be reinterpreted through warmth, wit, and domestic intimacy. It remains one of the most beloved and recognisable pieces in the history of 20th-century design.
