The necessity of designing a pedal bin for Mizetto has developed during the years of the Covid19 pandemic, which has left all of us reluctant of touching handles and surfaces in public spaces, especially in relation to waste bins. The Pelican bin is characterized by clean geometrical lines, yet with a soft expression. The bin is designed to be used as a single piece or as part of recycling stations. Pelican’s characteristic shape creates harmonic geometrical compositions when more bins are placed side by side or two bins are placed back to back. Pelican is available in different sizes and colors, its understated and refined character makes it suitable for both public and private spaces.
