Refrigerator - need finding concepts
PRODUCTS

Date: January 1998

Purpose:
Stanford University Product Design Project

Description: To explore and define innovative needs for refrigerators.

This concept explores a common alternate use for refrigerators which is to store female beauty products, film, and batteries. Currently, each person invents their own system for this need.

The rapid concept design addresses this need in general for all refrigerators, and specifically for the SubZero brand which tailors towards an affluent market and has standard door shelving dimension across all brands. The added benefits are:

  • Convenient: contents are easily viewable and removable bins
  • Safe: out of reach of children
  • Compartmentalize: film & batteries are < 2.5 in. and medicine and nail polish are > 3 in.
Stats:

Approximately 100,000 refrigerator sold per year in the U.S.
