Architects are attracted to Sub-Zero refrigerators for a number of reasons; for Van Dam, it’s the aesthetics. The “minimally detailed clean surfaces pick up light and reflect it into a room, dissolving the bulkiness of kitchens,” he explains. The handbuilt refrigerator/freezers are designed with dual cooling systems, electronic controls, and an alarm to alert homeowners when the door is ajar.
