Cooler-Created Counters

The Refrigerator Coffee Table by Arjun Rathi Makes Evenings Easy

The Refrigerator Coffee Table by Arjun Rathi looks like a cooler, but unfortunately is not the real deal. You will still have to get up to grab a cold one with this counter as your table.

The design idea for this table came from two interns that were given a scrap refrigerator door by their carpenter when they needed a table to work on. To be creative, they used the door to create the top of their table and painted it. The door's condenser coils and metal were all cleaned out and then finished by powder coating it all black. The underbelly for the table fits modern day design making this piece resourceful and competitive in its market.
