Global Cooling: Solar-Powered & Ultra-Portable Mini-Fridge & Dornob. It is this kind of truly remarkable invention can (and did) get a student designer like Emily Cummins an invitation to visit with the Queen of England.
It looks like an unassuming mixed-material cylinder, but conceals the astonishing ability to transform rays from the sun into vital food-cooling air … a simple but world-changing technology. Refrigeration is a tough technology to make mobile, let alone solar-powered and suitable for the developed and developing nations of the world alike. A few years, now, since its creation, and already this little fridge has changed the lives of thousands of rural Africans who have heretofore relied on less convenient, cheap and healthy methods for keeping edible commodities fresh and safe.

What makes them more interesting, however, is the way they can be combined into more complex shapes to create decorative patterns. A simple singular Flos Architectural Wall Piercing ring creates a flower-like arrangement, while an untidy line adds some asymmetry into the mix. They can be layered up and interlinked as well, though the effect starts to overwhelm the viewer a bit (perhaps more appropriate for a night club than a living room) if the patterns become too pervasive. While they are attached to the wall, they look like hoop earrings actually piercing the surface from a distance – or as if someone stuck the each ring in while the plaster was drying. Definitely a neat effect and is multiplied through creative combinations and overlaps.
