The Osmo Evaporative Refrigerator keeps produce fresh using no electricity. Food stored in the central chamber of the ceramic vessel is preserved by the passive cooling effect of water evaporating from the reservoir in the vessel’s double wall. The cool, humid environment it produces is ideal for the storage of fruits and vegetables. Through the occasional simple interaction of refilling the reservoir, users develop a continual awareness of and connection with the foods they eat, increasing the likelihood that their food will be eaten before it spoils. Kept on the counter, Osmo reminds users to eat what they have, further reducing food waste.
