The 'Out of the Blue' fridge is Rocco’s latest limited-edition release, a bold reinterpretation of its acclaimed 'Super Smart Fridge.' Defined by a vivid cobalt hue, it exemplifies Rocco’s approach to combining utility with expressive design.
To mark the launch, the first 100 purchasers will participate in a promotional event inspired by classic game shows. Each limited-edition fridge includes a concealed “blue prize” valued at up to $3,000, featuring curated design pieces such as the 'OffHours Home Coat,' 'Nik Bentel’s Blue Loopy Chair,' and a 'Louis Poulsen' lamp.
A campaign video hosted by Natalie Shine brings the concept to life with theatrical flair, emphasizing Rocco’s belief that practical objects can also spark joy. As co-founder Alyse Borkan explained, "the Out of the Blue Fridge invites consumers to embrace design that both functions and uplifts."
