Swing Bin – simple and elegant waste bin designed by Shigeichiro Takeuchi.

It’s so sculptural that at first glance you might not notice that it is a waste bin. Swing Bin might seem typical with a simple cylinder-shape, but if you look closely you will recognize its true uniqueness. Its diagonal opening has been dramatically cut with a wooden lid, a lid that swings and tilts. It is this simple lid that hides a magical element to make the Swing Bin distinct from all others.
