The Electrolux Flatshare Refrigerator

Due to global warming and frequent changes in weather it’s becoming hotter than before. Therefore keeping food and drinks afresh has become kind of hassle especially when the freezer space is shared by your roommates. Having a personal space for your own food supply storage has always been a necessity. Therefore you may desire your own storage space for your particular and unique culinary delights, but you also end up tolerating friends hogging the refrigerator with their uninspired food and drink choices.

The new Electrolux Flatshare Refrigerator is an innovative product that gives you your own space for all-natural, processed, or whatever else kind of food you enjoy. So no more storage of your exquisite delectable’s, alongside someone else’s less-than-fresh eatables. This modular refrigerator guarantees you your own personal, safe, sanitary, and organized refrigerator and freezer space.

The modular fridge as a whole is made up of separate pieces or compartments. They are stackable, one on top of the other. In essence, each roommate has their own mini-fridge; however, they are not stored in separate rooms. They are part of one refrigerator unit in one space that takes up the same amount of space as a traditional refrigerator does.

This has been the brainchild of Stefan Buchberger from the University of Applied Arts in Vienna. He designed it as an entry in the Electrolux Design Lab competition, which is held yearly. Each stackable module or compartment that comprises the Flatshare Refrigerator is suitable for one individual. There is a taller section for bottles and cartons and a section for fruits, vegetables, and packaged meats and the like. In addition, there is a section for frozen foods as well. Each person’s module comes equipped with handles on the side for portability.

Each refrigerator configuration, as a whole appliance, consists of a base unit and can employ up to four of the stackable modules. Each person’s storage unit can be a different colour. An individual can also choose to add accessories to their particular module. This could be a bottle opener or a small bulletin board in front. This far-out refrigerator is the perfect peacekeeping device for those who fight over refrigerator space. It’s a sure way to keep one’s food in one’s own territory. While it doesn’t guarantee against pilfering from those friend’s of yours with voracious appetites, it does guarantee your food will stay stored where you like it-the way you like it.
