How might we offer a sustainable recycling console 
for paper and dry mixed recycling waste?
I came up with a lightweight, smart, fit for purpose and visually appealing solution.
it can be entirely customised depending of clients requirements (colours, branding, text and icons) and their budget.

I have defined the product shapes in order to fit usability all along its lifecycle (from production, to use by office employees and cleaners, until it is finally recycled).  The console had to convey values of sturdiness, elegance and simplicity. Cleanliness, modularity and ease of emptying the trash was also at the heart of the decision making process.
