Who doesn’t love a cute robot? Coffee brand Lavazza takes us to a near future in which a Wall-E-alike motors about an office in an adorably haphazard fashion, serving up espressos, lattes and cappuccinos to workers in need of a break. He’s beloved, as you’d expect.

But when everyone’s gone home, our hero decides to try his own supply. An errant droplet triggers a malfunction that makes him hallucinate a brand-heritage-reinforcing Italian holiday with his colleagues – complete with beaches, galleries and gondolas. ‘Pleasure makes us human,’ is the point.

So it’s a bit sad when the little guy wakes up, back in the office – until we realise he’s not alone. In fact – in something of a coup for the brand – he’s in the company of two rather famous ‘Office’ workers. A happy ending!
