Ecotrolley
academic project. 2011.
Ecotrolley is a portable recycling center.
It was inspired to a domestic use in a mid-class aggregate.

Ecotrolley is a result of a research around domestic recycle and of a 'gap' in the actual products. The majority of the products don't have dimensions proportional to the size of the trash. In most of them, the 3 containers have the same size, which is unaccurate and creates an unecessary need to bring to the the public bins, one earlier than others.

Also, there are very few recycling centers which combine household waste with the rest of the trash cases.
The 4 different containers are attached through the power of the magnets, represented in black.
After some draws and intensive standard measures research, i got to final shape.
