If it’s warm enough and Oliver Bishop Young is nearby, you get a dumpster swimming pool! The dumpster swimming pool is one of Young’s creative approaches to guerrilla fun; the UK man has turned dumpsters into everything from ping pong tables to an urban swamp. This gallery even shows a dumpster hot tub! Talk about turning trash to treasure! ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.3/10 - Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Modern](https://www.trendhunter.com/modern) ## Related on Trend Hunter - [High Tech Designer Tubs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/high-tech-designer-bath-tubs.md) - [Creativity With Dumpsters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skips-as-public-spaces-alternative-uses-for-rubbish-dumps.md) - [Undulating Plywood Eco Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/henrique-oliveira.md) - [Personal Dumpsters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-bagster-a-dumpster-worth-its-weight-in.md) - [Dumpster Diving](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/freegan.md) - [Dumpster Dress-Up](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beautifying-your-trash-dumpster-art.md) - [Luxury Hot Tub](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxury-hot-tub-aquafit-19-dual-temp-by-dimension-one.md) - [Hot Tub and Barbecue All in One](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hot-tub-bbq.md)
