“Cleanliness creates beauty”, with that as a slogan and belief, Mumbai-based designers Nishant Jethi and Aalap Deasi have collaborated a psychedelic public trash bin that displays colorful kaleidoscope patterns as rewards to people who have properly disposed their waste.
As the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympics Games are soon to begin, the London government is now busying with many projects to make the city good enough to welcome guests from all over the world. One of those projects is the LCD smart recycling bins built in London’s streets and public spaces. Each recycling bin features a couple of LCD screens on either side, which will display the latest news from 6 am to the mid-night every day. The bins are fitted with Wi-Fi too, so that they can offer a better and wider connectivity. Since these bins are nearly the most high-tech recycling bins we’ve ever met, each of them will cost about £30,000 to build.
Dustpan, trashcan and broom are three necessary things for household cleaning. For quite a long time, they’re designed and used separately, until Brendan Ravenhill’s dustbin that integrated them together. In this design, the dustpan also serves as the lid of a trashcan, subtly attaches onto the top of the trashcan and moves for you to use. The beech wood brush can hang on side of the bin with embedded rare earth magnets, thus making it easy and clean for storage.
Ever felt it bothered to bend down to pick up those dust particles on the floor? Calm down and have a look at this CUUM Electronic Wastebasket. It is a clever combination of an electric appliance with a vacuum cleaner, which would suck all the dust in when you sweep it to the bottom of the device and turn it on. So how do you like it? Everything gonna to become easy.
Waste Folder is a recyclable bin that you can take everywhere, as it usually keeps in a compact size as that of a notebook. But simply unfold it and then you can get a six-compartment garbage suited for any situations. [Read the rest of this entry...]
We humans are really clever: we put our foot into the waste basket to compress the discarded paper, so as to make room for trash. But apparently the designers are much clever, as they’ve collaborated with a flexible waste bin that allows the users to make room for trash much more quickly and neatly. When the basket is almost full of paper, you simply need to get its mouth together and compress the trash, and you’ll find more room is made once you release its mouth to let the bin will then go back to its original shape. Fantastic!
Dubbed Push Up, the flexible waste bin is an iF Concept Design 2010 winner. [Read the rest of this entry...]
Well, almost nothing new but still quite impressive. Here’s how the deal works: you have different kinds of trash, including paper, apple cores, plastic or even beverage.

It includes a small water-proof bin for keeping used teabags or other wet items, as well as a larger bin to take paper and recyclable plastic. The pics of the working prototype convince me that this is really a great idea! [Read the rest of this entry...]

Not merely an interesting name for the dustbin, ‘Trash Know’ also gives us a vivid illustration of the special point of the design. Using a roll dispenser at the bottom of the bin to hold disposable liners, the trash bin has successfully shown us an effective way to incorporate and change rubbish bags. When the bag is full, you only need to tie a knot to tear away it and pull out another from the roll dispenser. Isn’t that easy? Great idea. [Read the rest of this entry...]

A good design will bring people with more convenience, and the cans used in our daily lives can demonstrate this principle perfectly. Now, designers have prompted a new model for cans. There are at least two distinctions making this model stand out. Firstly, it makes it much easier for you to twist it, therefore sparing much space. And the second one is its indent clip that is easier for you to open it without clipping a nail.

As a result, as you’ve seen in the pictures, a ‘3/4 Trash Bin’ is now here with us.

If you’re someone who likes novelty, you’re sure to love the Mint-pass Rubbish Can by Jongchul Kim.

Still using an infrared sensor, the trash can also allows you to observe its residual capacity simply through the change in color, which turns redder as the bin goes fuller.
This is a brilliant idea. The trash can itself is made from waste paper and so it is eco-friendly. But the attracting point is that this can comes with multiple layer, each of which can be used as garbage bag separately. In other words, in case the bin is full, you can just throw the trash away with the inner layer.
