Design The 4th Bin Winners

Valiant Technology announced the winners of the "Design The 4th Bin" competition.

The competition sought ideas and concepts from around the globe for a public domain e-waste logo and a licensed collection bin for e-waste.

Initially conceived in response to New York City Local Law 13, which prohibits electronic waste disposal in the regular trash, the concept of the 4th bin has ignited a response from the design community and ecologically conscious firms around the world.

The respondents ranged from design students to internationally recognized industrial designers and architects.

First prize for the collection bin went to Springtime of Amsterdam.

First prize for the e-waste logo went to Two Twelve of New York City.

There were three runner up projects for the collection bin, Baharash Bagherian of London, AM/PM Studios of New Hampshire, and Alistair Bramley.

First runner up for the e-waste logo was Kevin Elliot James of Toronto.
