Robert J. Lang, one of the worlds foremost origami artists and scientists, presents the never-before-described mathematical and geometric principles that allow anyone to design original origami, something once restricted to an elite few. From the theoretical underpinnings to detailed step-by-step folding sequences, this book takes a modern look at the centuries-old art of origami.
Advanced Origami provides unparalleled instructions in how to create master-class level paper folding projects. The origami designs are challenging - they require considerable folding experience - but results are more art than craft - you'll create projects that you can display or give as a gift.
Sophisticated origami or paper crafts fans will appreciate the ten unique origami designs included in the book - with complete how-to instructions and photographs.
The book also features information on paper selection and preparation, advance techniques such as ''wet folding'', and making your own paper.
These are good models from Montroll s early days. They are every bit as creative as his later models but tend to be a little thicker thus requiring thinner paper for good results.
