Instead of a huge metal box, complicated to recycle, expensive to ship, and hard to keep clean, Electrolux has prototyped what it calls the 'Soft Fridge'. With a heat-insulating membrane, extendable shelves, and accordion-style ease of pack-up, the entire unit is intended to work more around your immediate needs but also be able to expand or retract on the fly. Still extremely-extremely in the concept stages, it does show that appliances are apt to change enormously over the next ten years. [GT]
