Save Your Gum, Make A Flower
One of my peeves is seeing people spit out their gum onto the sidewalk. Like HELLO! I see you and that is so wrong. Designer Jung-taek Choi noticed people are more willing to dispose of their gum properly if it’s part of a fun activity, so he created the Gum Flower. The wrapper is actually a piece of origami waiting to be folded, providing a neat little cup for your used gum.

Nice idea… but, people are too lazy anyway… it’s pointless.
Jung-taek,Choi says
but if they overcome laziness, maybe,they can be an ecoactivitst
Ami says
I’d do it, what’s the instructions to fold it?
paul sandip says
people who spit gum are the ones who throw away the wrapper first…how does this help?!
Bree says
I like the idea. I don’t know if it will stop the gum spitting on the sidewalks, but I still think it’s pretty rad!
kate says

Kasper Andersson says
Great idea, but i doesn’t think it will bring down the number og used gums on the sidewalks.
sergio says

Eric says
Really good try, great idea, however not enough people will ever do this to make an impact on gum littering, I’m afraid it wont leave this site…
eric says
how is it ecoactivist? by using more paper to make a flower ? beside, i am so tired that designer want to make everything beautiful, look at the trash can, tell me where did you ever see a trash can like that, so clean, and white. sometime ugly is beautiful as well.
Lycan says
majority of the origami in the trash can is not even the same as the product of the folding patterns…as said before, wrappers are the first to be littered so this idea would be more fantasy than practical.
