The design of the fridge/freezer user interface was part of a bigger project which saw the refresh of the ActiveSmart refrigerator platform at Fisher & Paykel. Previously the user interface sat at the back of the fridge obscured by contents, and thus often hard to see and operate. Now located behind the door hinge, the new interface is easily seen and interacted with. It is a touch-sensitive panel whose hierarchy is clearly laid-out with primary functions at the top and secondary below.
