Designers have started designing products that are not just good to look at but are also environment friendly and saving resources. This new concept called ‘Go Fresh‘ is an energy saving fridge which has been uniquely designed to keep the items fresh while saving energy. The fridge has been divided into 12 individual compartments which can be temperature controlled individually. These honey comb shaped compartments automatically shuts the air inlet the moment the desired temperature set is reached. Thus the freshness of the item is maintained and the energy consumed is also controlled. Best of both worlds… What say?
