Art and math intertwine in exciting and complex new ways in Geometric Origami. Origami is a centuries old art form, where folding a piece of paper creates a new and wondrous object. But when the art of origami and the science of math combine, they connect together in such a way that something entirely different and magical is created.
In Geometric Origami, world-renowned origami artists Michael G. LaFosse and Richard L. Alexander encourage paper folders to explore the geometry behind the ancient art. The initial folds are easily created, but once the basic building blocks are ready, it is the intricate combining of these pieces into a new geometric sculpture that truly inspires.
This set includes a 32-page, full-color book with step-by-step instructions and easy-to-follow diagrams; a DVD with video tutorials, as well as a link to online videos; and 48 sheets of 3 3/8" square origami paper, perfect for detailed, intricate folding.
