ABSTRACT
The refrigerator is a spatial machine. Its interior space and space allocation, its division and organization, and the amount of space it takes in a home, these are major considerations for purchasing this domestic machine. As a storage machine, the refrigerator is more of a piece of furniture than a domestic appliance. Every time food ingredients are carried home, they are quickly stored into the refrigerator, in order not to be seen in their raw state, avoiding turning the home into a littered market. The refrigerator stores and hides foods in the same way a wardrobe stores and hides clothes, to keep the home tidy and clean –raw foods are incompatible with a healthy environment. The refrigerator is an intermediary between food supplier and stove. The refrigerator as an intermediary not only changes the shape of food, but also removes regional restrictions on food. Food circulation depends on refrigerators as its terminal point owing to their storage capacity.
