Currently I’m researching recycling bins with three compartments made of eco-friendly materials for my own kitchenette. To my big surprise there are many great, modern designs out there but most are made out of plastic. How come trash bins that are designed to sort your recyclables are not recyclable themselves? That doesn’t make any sense.
Hence I was really glad to discover the Ovetto Recycling Bin designed by Italian architect, designer and art director Gianluca Soldi. The look is very organic yet futuristic with its egg-shaped design. Best of all it’s made from recycled polypropylene. The recycling bin has three compartments and a central bottle and can crusher to compress the waste. It’s also great for small spaces or even corners since the design rotates around its central axis. It comes in white (made from 40% – 70% recycled plastic), black (made from 100% recycled plastic) and color. It’s perfect for modern homes or offices that want to make a future forward statement about their green commitment. Unfortunately the Ovetto is a bit too modern for my current home even that I love the design. Please let me know if you know of other modern eco-designs for recycling bins preferably for small spaces.
