We’ve all been there … living with mates while finishing off university or just simply starting off on your own (not quite when you need a room mate to pay the bills). Remember waiting to get home to sup on that last bottle of hooch and opening the fridge to … NOTHING! The Flatshare Fridge should take care of that!
The Flatshare Fridge is an ingenius design by the creative Stefan Buchberger, designed specifically for the annual Electrolux Design Lab competition, held in Vienna. This Applied Arts student wowed audiences with his impressive thought-provoking design. Not only is the fridge retro-looking and absolutely cool but its usefulness shadows these characteristics ten fold!
The idea behind this concept is that each room mate gets their own “mini-fridge” within a fridge unit. Each compartment has an area for larger standing bottles as well as space for the usual commodities one would find in a fridge (think mouldy cheese and limp lettuce) as well as an area for your frozen goods.
We can’t promise that your mates aren’t going to toss the limp lettuce and fiddle with your compartment but we reckon it will be a deterrent (what you can’t see you can’t be tempted with) and some of your yummy leftovers should be saved another hour till you finish class!
