Origami Paper Modular: 350 Colorful Papers Perfect for Folding 3d by Michael G. LaFosse

$50.00 NZD

Available Stock:

Category: Craft - Papercraft

A single piece of artfully-folded paper is a wondrous object in the right hands. When multiple folded pieces are combined to form larger models--the results are truly astounding! Modular origami is the art and technique of folding multiple sheets of paper and then interlocking them to create composite m odels which are larger and more complex than origami produced with a single sheet of paper. The individual modules are folded separately and then assembled to form larger constructions--typically by inserting tabs into specially created pockets. Friction and tension between the tabs and pockets hold the models together. Modular origami requires a large number of papers in specific sizes with particular patterns. Modular folders are therefore continually on the lookout for new and unique papers to give their sculptures a distinctive look. "Modular Origami Paper Pack" fills this need with 350 perfectly-sized, high-quality color papers in a variety of attractive designs that have been specifically chosen for use in creating modular models. To get you started, this paper pack contains a booklet with instructions for six modular projects by world-renowned origami artists Michael LaFosse and Richard Alexander. Create new and startling geometric shapes with "Modular Origami Paper Pack"! ...Show more
