Came across this 1980s-vintage Black & Decker Spacemaker coffee maker at a thrift store today. It’s designed to be mounted under a kitchen cabinet to save counter space.
It’s a little symphony of rounded corners and little modules: The water tank that slides in at top left, the filter basket and coffee carafe on the right.
I was curious to see what they looked like today and boy howdy, they are pure 1970s cassette futurism.
You know Aunt Beru steamed her blue milk in one of these babies, and the crew of the Nostromo had at least three on standby.
