Dumpster Summer
With summer coming to an end, I've dedicated this blog post to our very own Dustin "Dumpy" Britt. (Not sure where the name came from, but you'll see how it relates in a minute).
As we all know, there's this little thing called recycling. A little thing that's often difficult to follow through with consistently. Sometimes the "Three R's" can be a real snooze fest. But what if…
you recycled some thing awesome — like a dumpster. This is where design comes in to play. Design, in its entirety, is more than what people normally think about (logos, business cards, etc.) To quote important-person Herbert Simon: “Everyone designs who devises courses of action aimed at changing existing situations into preferred ones.” For more insight, take a look at The Designful Company.
And as British designer Oliver Bishop Young shows, there are a great many possibilities, including:
Gardens
Living Spaces
And the one best suited for our Southern summers, pools.
Luckily we still have a couple months left of toasty weather, and rumor has it, resident intern, pâtissier extraordinaire, and hip individual Meg (& co.) just might have something in the works..
