This new lifestyle TV features a modern and elegant design. The Bespoke refrigerator, customizable to customers’ personal tastes, consists of eight models ranging from one-door to four-door units and offers a replaceable front panel of the sleek door which allows mixing and matching of different materials and colors, reflecting personal preferences in style. The “Kitchen Fit” door was employed to give a “built in-like” look to any kitchen. “Samsung Electronics has pursued lifestyle innovations based on both reflection of current trends and its insight into customer needs in the future – Dontae Lee, Executive Vice President and the Head of the Corporate Design Center at Samsung Electronics, commented -.
