[Design Story] Bigger Screen, Deeper Connections: How Life Expands With Family Hub™+

As homes have evolved, the kitchen has become a hub for social activity and family gatherings. No longer confined to just cooking and eating, the modern kitchen sits adjacent to living spaces, blurring the boundaries between functional areas in homes. Today’s kitchens serve as shared spaces where families commune, have fun and express their individuality. As the role of the kitchen has transformed, so too have its appliances — taking new leaps to meet the demands of a more connected and multifunctional space. For instance, the refrigerator has now become central to the family. With the introduction of door screens and IoT features through Family Hub™ in 2016, the refrigerator industry has changed forever. Fridges now let us enjoy art, entertainment and even shopping.
