# Petaled Trash Bins The Bryant Park Litter Receptacles Complement Their Natural Surroundings By Meghan Young | Published 2011-02-20 | Eco Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bryant-park-litter-receptacles References: [yankodesign](http://www.yankodesign.com/2011/02/18/beautifully-disposed-trash/) & [bryantpark.org](http://www.bryantpark.org/) Just because trash bins hold trash doesn't mean they have to look like garbage too, as the Bryant Park Litter Receptacles demonstrate. Instead, by embracing a [colorful, organic design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hachiman-bucket), they not only encourage good taste, but also more conscientious upkeep. Designed by Ignacio Ciocchini, the Bryant Park Litter Receptacles are available in sets of three: one for [bottles and cans](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smartsort), another for trash, and the third for [newspapers and magazines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dumpstuder-pencil-holders). With a modern, organic design, the receptacles complement their surroundings without blending in too much so as to go unnoticed. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.7/10 - Popularity: 30% | Activity: 12% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Organic Trash Bins:** Opportunity for designing aesthetically pleasing trash bins that complement their surroundings and encourage conscientious upkeep. - **Colorful Litter Receptacles:** Embracing vibrant designs for trash bins to promote good taste and enhance urban aesthetics. - **Multi-compartment Waste Bins:** Innovative trash bin designs with separate compartments for different types of waste to encourage recycling and proper waste management. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Urban Design:** Opportunity for incorporating visually appealing and functional trash bins into city planning and urban landscapes. - **Waste Management:** Innovation in creating efficient and user-friendly waste receptacles to improve collection and disposal processes. - **Public Spaces:** Enhancing the design and functionality of trash bins in parks, plazas, and other public areas to promote cleanliness and environmental responsibility. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Modern Durable Trash Receptacles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/trash-receptacles.md) - [Adorable Public Rubbish Bins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/design-seoul-20.md) - [Chic Utilitarian Trash Cans](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/carden-the-twin.md) - [Sustainably Constructed Garbage Cans](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rubbish-bin.md) - [Modular Organization Garbage Bins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kitchen-garbage-bins.md) - [Tipping Trash Can Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/niko-trash-bin.md) - [Customizable Garbage Cans](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/totem-compact-unit.md) - [Modular Trash Organization Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sortmate-trash-cans.md) - [Eco-Friendly Organized Containers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tronco.md)
