Don’t have a vase? An easy throw-away plastic bottle will do, but it might look dull under the pretty plants or flowers. But thanks to a traditional Japanese sushi dish, the squid sashimi, Japanese designer Hiroshi Kajimoto was inspired during a casual sushi meal to create a collection of stunning paper vases. The unique design is called Kami No Tsubo, which literally means "Paper Vase," and is made by incising narrow slits into a flat-pack sheet and pushing it down to achieve an elegant three-dimensional shape.

The paper vases are born out of the basic idea of shaping two-dimensional objects into three-dimensional forms. The simplicity of the concept allows vast experimentation with skinny or chubby vases!

Since they're made from paper, there are endless combinations of textures and colors for limitless creativity.
