“PVC Handblowing Project”, Japanese designer Kodai Iwamoto uses glass-blowing techniques to remodel plastic pipes into vases. Tokyo-based Iwamoto began his Plastic Blowing project with the desire to transform a mass-produced material into a piece of art. He combines the "old-fashioned" manufacturing process of glass-blowing with cheap, readily available PVC pipes that are typically used in plumbing.

Kodai Iwamoto (born in Kagoshima, Japan) starts his study of product design at Kobe Design University in Japan.
While a bachelor's degree there, he joined a DESIGN SOIL, which is an educational design project by teaching staff and students. Through the project, he had participated in several international design fairs such as Milan Design Week.

After the study in Kobe, he then moved to Lausanne in Switzerland, where he lived for 2 years to gain practical skills at master course in ECAL( École cantonale d'art de Lausanne).
After life in Lausanne, he moved his base to Tokyo and has been actively working with some furniture brands both in Japan and abroad.
