Litter & Recycling Receptacles
Landscape Forms is excited to introduce the Rockford litter, a system of 45-gallon recycling, litter and compost receptacles designed to provide performance and elevated aesthetics for public outdoor spaces. The system was designed in collaboration with Michael Welsh, a Grand Rapids-based industrial designer and Principal/Owner of Michael Welsh Design.
Available in side-opening and top-opening styles, the Rockford litter’s increased volume, durable all-metal construction and ease of servicing make it an ideal solution for high-traffic public outdoor spaces like urban parks and downtown streetscapes. It’s adaptable in function and form, designed to work solo or in groupings and with understated modern design that quietly elevates its fellow site furnishings.
On the side-opening version, the lid takes the form of an origami-inspired folded plane, seemingly floating above the container and creating new and interesting silhouettes from different viewing angles. For the top-opening model, Rockford litter’s lid is akin to an oblique pyramid with the faces cut out, lending the receptacle a directional quality and a rhythm when placed in groupings. On both versions, the lid can be color coded to clearly communicate its appropriate contents to users.
Rockford litter is available in Landscape Forms’ new powdercoat color palette, a thoughtfully curated range of options designed to fit into diversity of architectural styles.
