![]() ![]() The Symbols page has only the eight symbols used, from a valley fold to a squash. Since all units are the actual edges of the polyhedra, you just need to follow those two diagrams to assemble the desired model. There is a short explanation about tools and paper choices along with diagrams of an icosahedron and a dodecahedron. The content pages present clear and attractive images of all the models. There are no steps to explain the full assembly, which will require some basic knowledge of modular construction from the folder. Last in the diagram is the assembly of three units. They are grouped into three chapters, named I, II, and III, but what defines each group is unclear.Īll the models start with a full-page image of the model and one to three pages of diagrams. The models are presented in what seems a random order. Where to find it: Paperback at OrigamiUSA’s The Source orĪmazon.That means that all diagrams ask for 30 units and create either dodecahedral or icosahedral patterns. Although the title does not hint at it, this book is dedicated to spherical models - AKA kusadamas - only. Even today, modulars are one of my favorite origami genres.ĭue to that interest, I was delighted to review “The Art of Modular Origami,” by Joseph Hwang. ![]() I had no idea that all those shapes were doable from origami. That is why, 20 years later, I was shocked when Tomoko Fuse’s “Unit Origami: Multidimensional Transformations” was published. I started to fold 45 years ago from four books of Robert Harbin, “Origami 1” through “Origami 4.” Together, they included only three modular models. ![]()
