Using recycled Ale-8-One glass bottles, UK College of Design student Aaron Scales has built a bus shelter with non-profit volunteer organization Art in Motion, designed for riders in Lexington, Kentucky. Powered by solar panel roofing, the LED-lit station is entirely self-sustaining.

This cool task of Art in Motion is really awesome. This is the perfect use of used bottles I reckon. Like Japanese artists in this post has done a cool job by reusing the old newspapers. http://www.gtrecycling.com/faq/recycling/an-upcycled-origami-dress-made-from-a-thousand-newspaper-cranes/
