'Arty' Rubbish Bins on Orchard Road?

A part of the responsibilities to protect the neat environment of Singapore, colorful rubbish bins will be placed along Orchard Road, the main shopping destination in the country, estimated to be up on December. Singapore Press Holdings and Paragon Shopping Centre are sponsoring the effort, and has urged all young artists to flash their talents on the 88 bins which will be displayed on Orchard Road for three months. On the bins, there will be also taglines and phrases to keep the citizens from polluting the street.

After three months, the painted bins will be displayed on The Straits Times' interactive portal for voting purposes. And for those who wants to purchase it after, can do so if they are willing to spend $500 each.

This environment protection project is called Creative Home. Log on to the official website to participate.
