The importance of recycling almost goes without saying these days. But doing so hasn’t been glamorous or even fashionable, at least until now.

The Ovetto Recycling Bin by Bouf brings style into the equation. Made from recycled plastic, the bin’s sleek curved design lets it fit readily into any home or office decor. It’s three sections feature holes to let air circulate. Easy and convenient, it also contains a bottle crusher in the central section to help compact your glass waste.

Available in standard and customized color combinations, this modern looking device – created by award-winning architect and designer Gianluca Soldi – is available only in the UK. Once again the Brits are way ahead of us Yanks it seems.
