Victoria Arduino Unveils L’Atelier — A New Creative Space at HOST Milano 2025

Milan— Qahwa World

At this year’s HOST Milano, Victoria Arduino is introducing L’Atelier by Victoria Arduino, a new creative concept that merges craftsmanship, design, and innovation into a single narrative space.

Drawing inspiration from the world of luxury ateliers, L’Atelier reimagines the traditional perception of coffee machines — presenting them not just as professional tools but as unique works of art. The new project reflects Victoria Arduino’s longstanding values of Italian excellence, artisanal partnerships, and an unwavering dedication to detail.

L’Atelier is conceived as both a showcase and an experiential journey through the essence of creativity and customization. It highlights the deep connection between coffee culture and high-end design, positioning Victoria Arduino as a key player in bridging the worlds of specialty coffee and luxury craftsmanship.

For its debut edition, Victoria Arduino has partnered with three distinguished Italian artisans and design houses:

BTB Progetto Pelle – Renowned leather artisans known for their bespoke panels and luxury finishes inspired by interior and fashion design.

Intreccio Vivo – A new generation of weavers preserving the art of midollino and raffia weaving, creating biodegradable decorative surfaces.

Vesta – Experts in sustainable, high-end composite materials used by leading international fashion brands.

Through these collaborations, L’Atelier embodies the harmony between sustainability, design, and artisanal mastery. It stands as a symbol of how traditional craftsmanship and modern innovation can coexist within the evolving world of coffee.

Visitors can experience this new chapter of Victoria Arduino’s creative vision at HOST Milano 2025, Hall 16 — Stand A11 – A19 – C12 – C20.

Milan Hosts Specialized Workshops Bridging Coffee and Culinary Art

Milan – Qahwa World

The global hospitality exhibition Host Milano 2025 is set to welcome leading experts in coffee and gastronomy through two specialized workshops organized by the Italian manufacturer La San Marco, renowned for its coffee machine craftsmanship. These workshops aim to redefine the relationship between coffee and cuisine, highlighting the art of manual espresso extraction as one of Italy’s most refined traditions.

Coffee and Food Pairing

Scheduled for October 17, 20, and 21, 2025, from 12:30 to 1:15 p.m., this immersive workshop, led by Mauro Illiano, takes participants on a sensory journey that goes beyond the cup to explore how coffee can accompany every stage of a meal, much like wine or beer.

The session focuses on the principles of harmony and contrast in flavor pairing and examines how origin, variety, roast, and extraction influence taste and aroma. Participants will also discover how La San Marco, through its advanced La Leva Luxury technology, has redefined espresso as a bridge between global coffee cultures and timeless Italian traditions.

Participants will explore the finesse of manual lever extraction and learn how pressure and temperature control can elevate the sensory balance of sweetness, aroma, and body in each cup.

The session demonstrates how even the smallest adjustments in extraction can transform the espresso experience, highlighting La San Marco Leva as a timeless tool that blends Italian artistry with modern precision—perfect for both professional baristas and passionate home brewers.
