PLASTICPeople

Joshua  Breidenbach

PLASTICPeople develop solutions for useful materials made from all waste plastic. PLASTICPeople materials have been put to use in projects, from housing for communities in Vietnam displaced by tropical storms, to designer furniture. Noting that plastic should not be a problem—and that plastic can be a material of hope, PLASTICPeople show us by example, how to “save the plastic.”

    Joshua  Breidenbach, Vietnam (2019)

    Joshua Breidenbach is the founding partner and Executive Creative Director of Rice, a strategic branding company based in Vietnam. Guided by the belief that bold, unifying ideas can move millions, he uses design to explore meaning, build connection, and contribute to positive change. Joshua’s work spans global organizations like Apple, UNICEF, and Uniqlo, as well as pioneering Vietnamese brands like Marou Chocolate and 4P’s. His cross-cultural practice reflects a deep love of discovery and a strong belief in what’s possible when diverse perspectives come together. He speaks internationally about how creative excellence—when paired with a founder’s mindset—can unlock disproportionate impact. His focus is on pop-driven, practical ideas that align ambition with transformation. Joshua's work has earned recognition from D&AD, Red Dot, Type Directors Club, and more, and has been featured in Monocle, Wallpaper UK, It’s Nice That, and leading design publications from Taschen, Gestalten, and Counter-Print.
