Köpükkö-PÜK
The foam on top of a Turkish coffee, and the part everyone looks at first. It's the studio: the care that goes into how a thing looks and feels.

The grounds left at the bottom of the cup, and some say they hold your fortune. It's the first product: it reads your last shot and suggests the next.
