Dumpster Palace


One man's dumpster, Is another mans palace! Picture the place you once tossed your Grime- and now picture your Gatsby pool! Once your waste- Now your favorite get away place! First your Grime- Now you Dine! Artist Oliver Bishop-Young sees Gatsby all over the Grimey streets. These Urban installations bring a new breath to upcycling as a whole.




The Goldsmith Graduate's goal was to make easily accessible street dumpsters that were not being used and create a way to allow community interaction as well as to change the world's view on the common use of a dumpster. Simple paint and home furnishings open a new get away for office meetings and friendly conversation. Right on your dead end street with a new liner and water for a neighborhood summer pool. Think of a future when dumpster diving becomes a completely new idea not only for the pools but for the silent time to read or catch up with a close neighbor! 








KILL YOUR BOREDOM -- SAVE OUR PLANET
TAKE YOUR GRIME -- MAKE IT GATSBY
