Origami & paper engineering

Learn a geometric form of origami, creating 18 brightly colourful and customisable folded paper ornaments and sculptures.

For anyone who wants to delve into decorative modular origami ornaments. Readers will learn to fold coloured paper into simple shapes, known as modules, and how to put them together, without using sticky tape or glue, to create amazing and attractive ornaments and sculptures. The 25 models presented will show readers how to create 18 projects, which begin at a very simple level so that they can succeed on their first try. Subsequent models and projects allow readers to develop their skills, so that by the time they reach the last project, they will be folding and assembling something extraordinary. Each of the designs can be customised using different kinds of paper and combinations of colors so that each finished ornament will be a unique and personal expression of the design.

Reviews for Modular Origami: 18 Colorful and Customizable Folded Paper Sculptures

Nicely presented . . . What sets this book apart from other modular origami books is the clear mathematical explanations . . . The final chapter, 'Going Further,' describes in detail how you can create your own models by adapting other designs (working through several what-if scenarios) . . . An interesting selection of both original models and classics from other designers, each accompanied with clear diagrams and written instructions . . . Worth adding to your collection, especially if you're passionate about polyhedra. -- —The Fold (OrigamiUSA)
