TRAPPED!
I designed this easy model after I folded the "Hypercube" by Nicolas Gajardo and Mateo Diaz, published in "4 esquinas #1". I was trying to fold a much simpler one, and came out with this, which can be seen as a rhombic dodecahedron trapped inside an hypercube, hence its name.
Each model is folded from 12x A8 rectangles, using Tant, EH, and tracing paper. The leftover pieces (cutting out the units from an A4) were used to fold a stand.
I prefer it folded from a single color, to see more clearly the polyhedron inside. I especially like the one folded from tracing paper, when seen backlit, and when looking it from a specific angle (the three-fold vertex), it can resemble a cube inside another cube, with a distorted perspective.
