Enhanced Everyday Objects is a UX-focused product design project centered on reimagining the home espresso machine as a connected, personalized system. The project combines physical interface design with a companion mobile app to improve usability, customization, and daily workflow.

Through competitive analysis, user research, and persona development, the solution addresses gaps in existing machines, specifically around guidance, personalization, and accessibility. The final concept introduces a smart espresso machine with an integrated touchscreen and app experience that allows users to customize drinks, track habits, and streamline their routine.
