Velopresso is an innovative coffee vending trike for true off-grid selling of quality espresso on city streets, at trade fairs, events and in parks, etc. Designed from the ground up around a custom rear-steer tricycle, a unique pedal-driven grinder, and a robust gas-fired lever espresso machine, Velopresso is a celebratory fusion of human power, sensory pleasures and technology – old tech with hi-tech, bicycles and coffee, their engineering and aesthetics. The result is a unique hybrid machine with a compact footprint and near-silent, low carbon operation – fine coffee, no electricity, no motors, no noise!..

By 2050 meat production will have to increase by 50%. Considering that
we already use one third of croplands for the production of animal feed,
we will have to look for alternative food sources and alternative ways
of growing it.
Farm 432 enables people to turn against the dysfunctional system of
current meat production by growing their own protein source at home.
After 432 hours, 1 gram of black soldier fly eggs turn into 2.4 kilogram
of larvae protein, larvae that self-harvest and fall clean and ready to
eat into a harvest bucket.
This scenario creates not only a more sustainable future of food production, but suggests new lifestyles and food cultures.
