Book

Rocket Espresso

A 100-page editorial project for Rocket Espresso, built around manufacturing culture, human detail, and the reflective material presence of stainless steel and chrome.

Overview

The book translates Rocket Espresso’s founding spirit into a printed narrative shaped by words, photography, and material precision. Born from the complicity of a group of young friends and inspired by a fascination with space exploration, the brand is presented through the daily gestures, tools, surfaces, and people behind its machines. Ines Tornadeira’s texts and Marco Dapino’s behind-the-scenes photographs build an intimate portrait of production: hands at work, tattoos, steam, polished metal, and the physical rhythm of the factory. Conceived as a 100-page publication printed in 4+1 colours, the book uses an additional silver plate to reflect the stainless steel and chrome that define Rocket Espresso’s visual and industrial world. More than a corporate book, the project becomes a tactile record of craftsmanship, attitude, and identity, giving printed form to the precision and energy behind the brand.
