These floral origami models are created from multiple, small pieces of paper. The pieces are easily folded to form units that then fit together to create a complex shape.

This book is a great way to learn origami: you can progress from easy models and then build on new your skills to tackle the more challenging designs. Easy to follow, step-by-step diagrams show how to fold simple paper units and then assemble them into incredible complex models. The most of the models in this book use square paper you can find easily in packs without needing to cut, and go together without the use of glue – both of which make this book a great origami guide for traveling. This book contains over 30 origami designs, including flowers, leaves and balls (also called kusudamas), most of which are brand new and have never been published or available to the public. Use it to create cute flower origami accents for your home or as unique handmade gifts.

Modular Origami Kaleidoscope
2016
ISBN: 978-0997311945
Number of models: 30
Number of pages: 82
Origami is the art of paper folding. Traditional origami requires that the model is made with a single sheet of origami paper. Modular origami allows you to compose the more complicated structures using relatively simple origami units or modules. The units are little and you can make them while in transport, in queue or watching TV. Repetitive folds are calming and help you reduce the stress. This book contains detailed origami instructions for over 30 modular forms, ranging from simple origami flowers and stars to intricate looking origami balls.
