Abstract :
This paper summarizes the key elements in the fridge design based on the analysis of the concept and connotation of the user experience design, and the methods to express each kind of elements are put forward. The trend of fridge design in the future is predicted with the help of the classification of various experience elements, which provides a reference to the research on the experience design theory and the fridge design. Moreover, the theory proposed in this paper, which is combining the user experience design theory with the fridge design, is also useful to other design applications such as the household appliance design and so on.
