I had the idea of such a modular for a long time, but finally it came to some very nice-foldable and square-foldable form :)

All the origami balls on this picture are indeed the same. The only difference between them is the styling of the loose parts. First you assemble the central one, and then you can style the complete ball to the left or right versions. All you need to do is peel some loose paper and style it! The left one may require pincers to perform, if you're using 7.5 cm or smaller paper. The right one is very easy and fast to make.

Unlike original Zipper, this one is not collapsible, you can't force it

more (you surely can do that with Zipper). I've got this one by eliminating rectangles of Zipper to zero

The modifications apply easily to this corrugation. By grafting stripes of paper here and there you can modify the proportions of squares or even add new squares.

Opus T-10

This box is decorated with Whirlwind molecule which can also be used for a tessellation. Its design is closely related to my Woven Triangles family, but I gave it a different name since all Woven Triangles variants are flat while this one is 3D and looks best with curved folds.

Paper: Foil

Unit size: 1:sqrt2

 

Designed and folded by me.

Medium: 60x60 cotton paper

 

Designing this was slow yet easy. Folding this was super long.

Another fish to add to the river monster collection.

 

Got the idea for the scales from Nakamura's carp. Actually sorta does look like his carp, except the CPs are definitely different.

Folded from a 33 x 66 cm sheet of sketch paper.

 

I never noticed that before folding this piece, but does really have huge ears!

 

Similarly to its companion piece, the Cheetah Head, this model is based on box-pleating, except for the eyes. Glue has also been used to close up the model on the sides.

A wise woman once said to me: “There are only two lasting bequests we can hope to give our children. One of these is roots; the other, wings.”

Origami & Photography related info :

Paper : Goatskin, 93gsm, 33x33cm. It's been a while since I last folded this dove. Trying to recall how I used to render it. Getting close. Ron's original design is kind of flattish while this rendition is rather 3D.

 

Photo shot with main (natural) light source streaming in from a big window on the left.

 

Will probably revisit, both the fold and the photography.

Mini flowers in mini bouquets for a few friends. Each bouquet is 10 cm high.

不切正方形一枚折り、アクリル絵具と墨汁で着色

Same as those on previous picture but having more repetitions of the same pattern... Not as effective as flower tower, as here next level is less than half, thus it's eating more paper. Folded from 30 cm of kami. The last level I opted not to try to finish it completely as it wasn't enough precise for that. The finish on the center is the same as on violet doodle... :)

Explored!

不切正方形一枚折り

View into a Norwegian fjord, folded from a sheet of hand-made paper.

This is one of Fujimoto’s _translucent designs_, a name he used for many of his tessellations. Folded from rare blue Elephant Hide paper, this work is not very much translucent, but on the other hand this thick paper shows the texture of the model well in reflected light.

 

Front and back feature somewhat different patterns, both involving equilateral triangles. The way I know which side should be considered front and which back is I got my hands on a picture of this design folded by Fujimoto (see below) and since he used duo paper, I assumed front was the color side.

 

There are no instructions for this model in Fujimoto’s books apart from pictures of finished model in strong back-light and of rather poor quality (Twist Origami I, page 33; Introduction to Creative Playing with Origami, page 163). Fortunately, thanks to Satoko Saito, I also got hold of a picture of another fold by Fujimoto himself, and that one was a color picture, in reflected light, and of much higher quality, making the reverse-engineering much easier. In a way, this design can be viewed as a triangle twist tessellation with modified pleat assignment.

My Archerfish's smaller yet more intensively color-changed cousin.

Color change was pretty whack, but at least I sorta nailed it.

 

Wonder how the CP will look like.

Nice fold and idea by Nguyen Hung Cuong. Diagram is not inside though..

My latest corrugation paperfold

One uncut sheet of tant.

Some 'mountains' can be inverted, I'll post the picture with half of them inverted soon...

This is not a usual one, the arising 'mountains' are not waterbomb bases ;)

I'm pretty sure that this one must be invented before. You can easily

reverse-engineer it too...

Beautiful and easy one.

 

1 pentagon for each.

Actually it's his model "Ginomo", but if you omit steps 10 and 11 the model becomes a Santa Claus.

Designed and folded few years ago. Crashed by gravity (its own weight) and other accidents.

Needed some time to finish this one. The grid is 1:128 and I wanted to fold this as flower as a center for the Camellia, but forgot to fold the outer petals, so it's something different ^-^

 

And the shapping ate up most of the time...

Rose design: Toshikazu Kawasaki

Paper: Tant, 15 x 15 cm

Tessellation: 1 uncut sheet of tant paper

Flowers: 1 uncut square for each.

 

the 'mountains' can be inverted to create an iso-surface corrugation.

Modified from my hippocamp.

From 35cm uncut square paper.

On the spring BOS convention in Birgmingham (april 2014) I met Giles Towning. He has got lovely designs! He developed this 'flower'model from the classic $Flower in a Pot (Herman Lau). It makes the model an iso form and it also has a color change. So you can decide whether you want to fold one of two flower(s) in one pot ;-))

Folded from a rectangle the length of an A4, two-sided kraftpaper.

Bāng Chhun-hong (望春風) is a Taiwanese Hokkien song composed by Teng Yu-hsien, a Hakka Taiwanese musician, and written by Lee Lin-chiu. The song was one of their representative works. It was released by the Columbia Records in 1933, and originally sung by some female singers at that time, such as Sun-Sun (純純), Ai-Ai (愛愛) or Iam-Iam (艷艷). The title literally means "Longing for the Spring Breeze".

 

This song is commonly used as background music in Taiwanese films or teleplays. It is also a theme in the soundtrack of Singapore Dreaming, a 2006 released Singaporean film.

Rabbit & Butterflies

Paper : Rabbit - 45cm square of Elephant Hide; Butterflies - 15 cm kami.

 

(Butterflies digitally shrunk for this scene).

These are 2 modifications of the 'magic ball' origami corrugation

attributed to Shuzo Fujimoto and Sing Keund Ng.

If you remember the original corrugation, it won't lie flat triangles up (flic.kr/p/bYXH9b)

These one have modified pattern and they're quite flat. At least the right one. The left one tends to have more curvature...

 

There's an infinite class of such modifications, I'll publish more info later.

 

Left α = 45˚, β = 15˚

Right α = 45˚, β = 27.5˚

both α and β may be changed.

The 'magic ball tessellation' has α = 45˚, β = 45˚
