Teleporting Refrigerators, Robotic Greenhouses, and Six Other Appliances for the Future
Appliance manufacturer Electrolux challenged designers to imagine the appliances households will be using over the 90 years. The finalists include printable foods, waterless washing machines, and fridge that can teleport groceries directly into your home.
In honor of Electrolux's 90th anniversary, its annual Design Lab competition is looking toward the next 90 years, asking designers how tasks like grocery shopping, cooking, and washing clothes will change over the next century. A winner will be chosen at the Electrolux Design Lab '09 finals on September 24th, but in the meantime, you can vote for the People's Choice award and check out videos of the contestants of further explaining their designs at Electrolux's website.
