Heavy-duty waste bin

Annotation

The semestral assignment was to design a heavy-duty garbage bin for the streets of Prague. The set requirements from Institute of Planning and Development mentioned: least amount of components, easy manipulation, durability, fixation, presence of a cover, minimal volume of 50 l and aesthetical resemblance of the environment of the capital city. The main inovated parts of my design are: - widened base effective against toppling - heavier body of the bin (200 kg) - surface texture making stickers ineffective whose pattern visually connects to current street furniture - the ability to be anchored to the ground.
