The sight of ugly trash bins in scenic parks certainly mars the natural beauty. Bryant Park Litter Receptacles and Recycling Bins put an end to the eyesores and appear as inspirational pieces that urge us to be responsible citizens. The bins come in three variations, one for general trash, one for papers and one for cans and bottles. The linear detailing, colors and operational slits match the function of each bin.
Details
- Plain detailing on the petal castings with a fern green color coating is used for the trash units.
- Linear detailing that relates to the shape of the opening for newspapers and magazines, with a lime green color coating is used for paper recycling units.
- Organic detailing that relates to the shape of the opening for bottles and cans, with a blue color coating is used for the plastic and metals recycling units.
- The outer basket or petals are powder-coated aluminum castings supported together by powder coated inner-ring ductile-iron castings.
- The flip-up hinges and lid are made from fabricated and spun stainless steel plate.
- The inner liner that contains the standard plastic trash bags comes in two versions, expanded steel mesh or rotationally molded polyethylene.
- The units are heavy duty but are lightweight, easy to use and move around.
- The molds for the branded petals have loose parts that allow for the customization of the branded petals and can include other park names or logos.
Ignacio Ciocchini for the Bryant Park Corporation in New York designed this line of litter receptacles but the units are commercial products that are for sale to be used in other urban areas or parks. Other parks in New York, like Herald Square Park, Greeley Square Park and sections of Broadway Boulevard, are already using it and several parks in the United States are currently considering its use.

We're always looking for interesting design and architecture ideas and today we have such an inspiring creation for you. The D'espresso Cafe New York is certainly a very creative place when it comes to interior design. The room looks as if a regular library has tumbled over on one of the sides. Everything rotates by 90 degrees, so the wooden floor actually becomes a wall while the bookcases filled with plenty of books occupy the new floor, the ceiling and a remaining wall. Not to mention that the former ceiling still provides all the light you'd need while defying gravity in the process. This D'espresso coffee place is definitely a good choice for going out, so if you happen to be in New York, do check it out! Via TheCoolist

If you are looking for a distinct piece of New York furniture, consider the “X Table” by Missy Vandenberg. Missy is a Brooklyn designer that sent in this submission highlighting her work. It’s easy to see the amount of detail that went into construction of the X Table. This is a nice example of furniture that is not mass produced where quality often suffers. Via – Studio Vandenburg.
