Architecture





So I had a vague conversation about another show the other day and it got me thinking about structure.  I have been obsessing over a sculpture for the last wee while. (some explanation of my lack of posting but not an excuse) One of the things I really enjoy about origami is the simple ideas. 

I came up with a fold a few years back which made a right angled corner in the middle of a sheet of paper.  Of course I saw the Enigma Bowl by David Mitchell and realised once again that one very rarely discovers anything new.  

However the nice thing about the fold involved is that it makes lovely structures. So I have posted a series of experiments here creating simple structures from the idea then becoming more complex.
