GRBGe
What if trashcans were pieces of furniture?
GRBGE is a new take on the common office garbage can. Current offerings are generally open-topped eyesores that require dead space above them in order to function. GRBGE tips out to open, turning the trashcan into a functional piece of furniture and reclaiming the space wasted by current options. You can even put a lamp on top of it.
