Saw this amazing looking piece of machinery on designsprout.

A stackable fridge! The idea apparently started with the need to have your own refrigerator space (!) for people who stay in hostels or share a fridge with roommates.

We think the idea is immensely scalable and soon every family will need one. Of course, even in one family, people have different cars, different handphones, different TVs! So one refrigerator but with different stacks is just what the doc ordered.

But the killer concept is that it would save such a lot of energy- just by grouping the refrigerated products. Use only the stack that is needed- keeping the rest stacks cooler and not letting cool air escape.

Flatshare Fridge is a design concept by Stefan Buchberger, a design student at the University of Applied Arts in Vienna.

We leave you with some cool photos
