The next evolution of the refrigerator

The concept of a refrigerator comes to the fore and makes us think about what the next development of these appliances, more generally the kitchen, is.

The next evolution of the refrigerator has emerged in front of me in the following form: Venin, a project by an industrial designer Eugene Shin.

The idea is simple. It retains the main functionality of the refrigerator, but adds design overhauls and, among other things, additional features.

Password: Mashup refrigerator

The standard that guides this concept is to create a large refrigerator that is also beneficial to the mononuclear family with the smallest possible footprint, without compromising the unique functionality of the appliance.

In summary, the size of the refrigerator is also used for a pull-out workbench (or meal).

Would you like to eat at the table that sticks out of the fridge? The Posette of a micro-apartment in Milan immediately comes to mind. Taaaac! Home appliances will also introduce countertops with sliding containers for fresh ingredients. Everything is tidy and everything is more organized.

How to save or consume?

From Venin, another XNUMX principle of the kitchen of the future is born. It is a growing awareness of food, its usage and its perishable nature. And the goal of reduction Food waste.

The upper half of the refrigerator is a storage area (for food that has a more relaxed time of spoilage).

If the food is consumed within a few days of opening the package, the compartment will change and become almost an edible food display (which comes out at a 45 ° angle).

When all is done, clean quickly and the counter will re-enter the fridge's bonus track: XNUMX UV-C Lights also eliminates bacteria on the work surface.

how is it? Whatever the direction, the refrigerator will be the hub of the kitchen of the future.

It is no longer limited to "cooling cabinets".
