The Upcycling Project

By simply adding an aesthetic cap to it, designer Ryan Choi hopes to extend the useful life of a plastic bottle. Many bottles get dumped and wasted, so adding this cap not only extends the life but also adds purpose; for example making a vase out of the bottle – Upcycling the form.

Ryan explains, “The cap protects against unwanted elements entering the bottle and as easy use lid that opens and closes quite simply for usability.”
