Fashion invading Electronics
In today's era, where even the famous Say's law i.e. "Supply creates its own demand" is being questioned, where the market is totally consumer dominant and where "demand creates its own supply" could be proven true, everyone is trying to produce what the consumers want.
I am an electrical engineering student but the first thing that I look for in a product is the aesthetics. I want to design products that will sell. Keeping up with the technology is why we have a major and to keep up with the market is where the secret lies. Fashion is all around, spreading its wings. People will not buy a product if it is not good looking even if you use the latest technology in it. Electrolux is an electronics company which in 2006 declared the "War On White (WOW)", a shift which marked the company's official move into thoughtful design innovation; meeting consumer demand for appliances that reflect more individuality in the home. They produce beautiful and luxurious home appliances using the latest technologies.
They have announced a new product called the Screen Fridge, which will have a nice decorative design on the outside. The basic screen fridge is a refrigerator equipped with a computer and a LCD touch screen outside on the door. These are two designs:
This one has a nice leather cover. A very classy look.
Apart from the looks, the LCD be very useful. It is a handy notepad, we can use it to
store recipes, it is a great place for family pictures and it can be very
entertaining for the person working in the kitchen as we can watch a video or
play music.
