Fold This Box: 1 Sheet Designs

Level: 
High Intermediate
Creator(s): 
Bradley Tompkins
Teacher(s): 
Bradley Tompkins

In this hands-on class, we’ll fold three original, single-sheet box designs—each one with its own surprise. These are high intermediate-level models, created with clean lines and satisfying closures. You’ll leave with printed diagrams, a deeper understanding of structure and shaping, and maybe even a giveaway (books, paper, or folded models). Come for the folds, stay for the fun.

  • Duo paper is preferred.

Efficient Origami Diagramming

Level: 
Not Rated
Teacher(s): 
William Gozali

Through this class/lecture, I will share an efficient origami diagramming framework. Starting with how to get started, the steps to minimize repeated work, all the way to formatting and ensuring the printed form precisely matches how it was drawn. We will not get into the detail of how to operate the software, but public resources will be shared so you can learn them outside of the class. We will also talk about what makes a diagram quality high, and how to achieve it.

Triangular Gift Box

Level: 
Low Intermediate
Creator(s): 
Arsalan Wares
Teacher(s): 
Holly Williams

I will teach the Arsalan Wares Triangular gift box. I love this model because it works up well with all kinds of paper. Bring an old calendar if you want! We will need six rectangular sheets of the same dimensions. I used six 8½-by-11-inch sheets to make the box. This is a very malleable box; it can be made with A4 (210-by-297-mm) sheets, A5 (148-by-210-mm) sheets, U.S. legal (8½-by-14-inch) sheets and square sheets.

  • This design will be taught from diagrams.

Lovelock Flower

This flower has a fun sequence in the middle that should prove a fun puzzle. Let's see if you can lock it in with me!

Puppy

Level: 
Intermediate
Creator(s):

Teacher(s): 
Jason Schneider

We're going to fold some puppies! I've rated this intermediate, but know that there is one tight open sink fold to master. I'll have you guys barking up that tree in no time though! And there will be origami puppies at the end to alleviate any stress that may cause.

Horse

Level: 
Intermediate
Creator(s): 
Jason Schneider
Teacher(s): 
Jason Schneider

We're going to fold a Horse of course! Let's saddle up and have ourselves a rodeo with this 2-unit Horse. We will work on a double-layered crimp which is the hardest step in this design, but we should be sittin' by the campfire watchin' John Wayne in no time! You will be required to name your Horse. Please think about this carefully in advance!
