+''Four different colors were used to help users distinguish between trash cans. While it might seem that the colors were chosen to represent types of trash, they were actually selected for ease of differentiation due to the designer's colorblindness. Some have speculated that the color-coding was not specifically designed for colorblind users but rather chosen as a time-saving approach, given the designer's focus on larger projects that would later influence their career.''
