# Conceptual Fresh Flower Refrigerators Heejun Shin and Janchi Create a Dried Flower Refridgerator By Amy Duong | Published 2022-11-06 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flora References: [yankodesign](https://www.yankodesign.com/2022/11/06/preserve-or-dry-flowers-in-this-frame-like-device-to-add-some-floral-magic-to-your-interiors/)  Designers Heejun Shin and Janchi imagine the Flora concept, which is a special [flower refrigerator](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/amity) or drier that highlights prolonging the life of fresh flowers. Focusing on the short life of the plants, the new device finds a way to prolong its life by controlling the temperature inside the device itself. Once the lifespan of the flowers is reaching the end of their life, there is also the option to dry them in a controlled space and use it as decor in a new light. Visually, the design is similar to that of a picture frame, which is also the inspiration behind the look. It also references refrigerators, flower vases, and [smart speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/orris-speaker-concept) for influence.
