These Upcycled Garbage Cans are Turned into Functional Furniture Pieces

— June 8, 2015 — Eco
Design Fabrika uses upcycled garbage cans in this furniture line. The pieces are all made from metal garbage bins. The transformation from a street-oriented trash containers to fully functioning furniture is beautiful. Each piece still maintains the rustic authenticity of a menal bin that has been re-purposed as a decorative and useful household item.

These eco-friendly and aesthetically pleasing upcycled garbage cans have been turned into a line of items that includes chairs, stools, washbasins, ice buckets, footrests, dressing tables and a keg station. The stools and seats are upholstered with bright colored material that create a unique fusion between grungy street-style and elegant seating. The use of the ice bucket that doubles as a cooler is a brilliant way to increase the functionality of the pieces even more.

Instead of taking out the trash, these pieces will have you ushering them inside.
