I'm building a capsule collection of folding books， specifically pleating， beyond origami。 I'm building a capsule collection of folding books， specifically pleating， beyond origami。 。。。more

This is a great book for people who are looking for more abstract origami techniques。 The steps are well illustrated and pretty easy to follow。For architects this is also a great source of inspiration for structural and design methods。 My only critique would be that it's rather short。 This is a great book for people who are looking for more abstract origami techniques。 The steps are well illustrated and pretty easy to follow。For architects this is also a great source of inspiration for structural and design methods。 My only critique would be that it's rather short。 。。。more

Love this book so much。 I bought this book to learn how to make awesome-looking folded paper。 Mission accomplished。

Folding paper is not just about origami。。。it is a skill that comes up in book arts （for example） all the time， and this meticulous and beautifully photographed book will give any artist who works with paper （or fabric） a ton of ideas。
