Communal Stinky
Trash bins on the street?! Oh we already have that. But wait. This is for recyclables? This concept, the “Olla” waste management system, is for the home and the streets. You collect your disposables and recyclables at home, fill up your travel bags, bring them to these community bins, and empty-em out! And look: pretty colors!
Look there’s three different bins. They’re intuitive. Green Circle for glass, square yellow for plastic and metals, diamond blue for newspapers and magazines.
And what are those bars on the top of the bins? Just ask Romaric! Romaric will also be seeing this thread and answering questions if they’re awesome enough.
Yes. These pipes are used for the pots to be lift up by a machine system called ‘kinshofer’; this is a standard system. Then the pot is put over a container which receives waste. As it is a standard system i just redesigned the skin, but not the global shape; right now the pipe is more dynamic.
Dynamic pipes abound!

ehm yea we have a system like this in the netherlands, underground bins and everything. they arent colored but thats why they have big letters on them that say “glass” or “paper” also ours are a little less pre-school looking then these, ours being dark blue with stainless steel.
