Recyclable barrels and bins represent an opportunity to transform industrial containers into purposeful design objects. Designers working in this space explore how existing cylindrical structures can be adapted, upcycled, and reimagined for contemporary use.

The community examines barrel and bin conversion across scales, from small-scale smart waste receptacles to large architectural interventions. Projects range from pavilions and public furniture to agricultural structures repurposed as residential spaces, demonstrating the versatility of barrel-based design.
