Instead of waiting a couple of hours for your drink to cool in the fridge, you can now use the 'Restore Well' to quickly turn your warm beverage cold. Conceived by designer Kyuho Song, the cooler was built to imitate the tradition of soaking drinks in a stream or well to cool them. However, instead of using water, the Restore Well uses thermoelectric technology to quickly cool your beverage. According Song, she wanted to "rediscover cultural heritages coming from the past and recreate them in a modern way."
The cooler works to rapidly decrease the temperature of a canned drink without any effort on your part. In just 3 minutes, the Restore Well is able to turn your drink cold after you the can down.
