Basically this is the same as Dirk Eisner's model - www.flickr.com/photos/eisfold/9371078880/
The 3 modules are folded from 7.5cm squares of Duo-coloured papers. They are actually my "Snowflake Modules" - www.nickrobinson.info/clients/owrigami/show_diagram.php?d... and I've added two 60 degrees reverse folds on the other end of each module.
This assembly was discovered by Dirk Eisner and is described in his post. [Link above]

Paris city council fights over new skyscraper.
The Paris City Council rejected plans for a new skyscraper on the city’s 19th-century skyline, in an exceptionally bitter vote Monday that embodies a larger debate over this city’s image, and its future, reports the Associated Press 17 Nov 2014.The fight isn’t over yet. The mayor immediately declared the Tour Triangle vote invalid, apparently hoping for a new round of balloting. The vote came down to a decision over whether Paris be preserved like the masterpieces and landmarks that draw the world’s tourists here, or embrace innovation and modern architecture. But the vote isn’t just about “preservation” of world-famous cityscape or about encouraging “innovative architecture” (what is actually innovative about this building?), it is about whether we desire appropriate scale / context insertions into our cities or endless bloated so-called icons? I recall years ago attending a debate about iconic architecture in Glasgow organised by Penny Lewis at Propsect magazine: Charles Jencks said architects shouldn’t waste time trying to fight iconic architecture, it was part of the market and rather than being a phase it would expand. I wasn’t convinced but crystal ball gazing tends to have limited useful results. Surely I’m not the only architect or human being who is tiring of endless iconic buildings sprouting across our historic cityscapes? The Montparnasse tower is a blight on Paris just like the Walie Talkie in London or the St James Centre in Edinburgh. The public will tend to accept landmarks over time – yes the Eiffel Tower wasn’t an overnight success for all – but acceptance is a layered matrix of design, location, meaning and appropriateness. The public can climb the Eiffel Tower, it is a public builidng, but what about the Tour Triangle, who is it for and why is it so high? Will the public be able to wander around in this oh-so-publicly visible skyscraper? The council voted 83-78 in a secret ballot against the Tour Triangle, a “cone-like glassy design that would be the third-highest tower in Paris after the Eiffel Tower and the Montparnasse tower, often decried as a modern blight on the city’s low-slung horizon”.

Curious Triangles
60" x 55" quilt for school auction
background fabric is quilters linen by robert kaufmann
inspired by the quilt "constructivist" from a book little bits quilting bee
This design consists only of triangular frames. I have adjusted the larger Triangular frames to, [I think ] the most optimal dimension. Smaller frames would cause overlapping and larger frames would leave gaps between the larger triangular frames. The larger frames are from paper strips of 36cm x 4cm each and the small Triangular frame is from 21cm x 4cm. This is not a very interesting design. It is also possible to connect 3 Triangular frames in the "Borromean" configuration. It will be more interesting to try it out with Impossible Triangles...later.
I matched prints to make diamond shapes, based on a quilt I saw online somewhere. I did not realize that the way that you pin them determines whether the angle is left to right or right to left. I am going to have to think about how to put these together.

Why just tessellating squares or hexagons? An equilateral triangle is a nice variety :-)

I am officially brushed out on this series.
I have had this image for over 6 years as I love it so much. What I really want is an actual print of this image but I haven't been able to find the artist! Can anyone help me with how I go about trying to find them out??!
The image came from a publication that is circulated in 60 Million Postcards in Bournemouth, that is all I remeber??!! HELP!
