By attaching the display to the handle of the refrigerator door, which is used most often in the kitchen environment and repeats door opening and closing, it will be more available than conventional door displays, seek convenience with the four most needed functions, and add to the enjoyment of life. In order to solve problems of raising children at home, it has been applied to a screen designed to prevent accidents by opening refrigerator doors to children. The shape of the handle also evolved from the general design and can be easily opened by grasping it in a curved shape outward, and the lower handle can be easily opened without much force. The bottom refrigerator door can hold a large amount of food in drawers. It has a fresh and cool look in the refrigerator by applying the shape of the glacier. The basic color also chose a black and gold harmony to match the design trend. The material uses metal materials to enhance the food's maintenance and mechanical feel, so that the overall ambience can be reminiscent of a cold, high-end image, even when used in the kitchen of the interior.

Jochen Backs— "Nice execution of icons and functions displayed on the handle - allowing the user to see and make adjustments without opening."
