The minds behind New Soap, Old Bottle are marketing multifuncionality in the form of new liquid soap sold in reused plastic and glass bottles. After being sanitized, the former Coke and Heineken bottles are filled with home or car cleaner, topped with child safe caps, and sold at $4 a pop. “Big companies aren’t going to do this on their own. So we’ll do it for them,” said Scott Amron, designer, electrical engineer and founding principal of New York’s Amron Exprimental. “We buy brand name liquid soap by the barrel and package it in old bottles here in America.” Recessionistas and green thumbs rejoice– we love this work.

Can anyone guess the bottles above? First one is pretty easy…

The first is Sprite, the second left, maybe fanta?

The bottom right one looks like your standard plastic bottle. It looks like the generic brand of tonic water I have in my fridge.
