Some people think trash just stinks, others love it. It's incredible what one can find just on the streets, not to speek of all the hidden trash in offices and basements. Actually, trash is the canvas and muse for a lot of artists and designers.

On an event in the SelfHub in Berlin last tuesday I met Anna Lena Schiller, who held a presentation about her project Trashury . In her project she connects the manufacturing industry with designers of all disciplines to make new products out of reclaimed material. 

 Trashury is Schillers final exam project as part of the KaosPilot education in Denmark. The KaosPilots is a university for business design and social innovation which trains young entrepreneurs and project leaders with a creative edge.

It seems recycling is on an absolute retour to coolness...
