Description

Origami reinvented! A lucky horseshoe fish, a ninja star from outer space, a tie-dyed flapping bird, and 54 more models on surprising paper. Mixing classically inspired and contemporary patterns, easy and challenging - what is origami but a brainteaser in paper? The Joy of Origami celebrates the art form's deepest tradition of sharing with a completely fresh and jazzy feel. The models range from birds and beasts to pinwheels and hats; the 100 sheets of paper included in the book are fun, bold, and unexpected. What is the real joy of origami? The "Wow!" that comes after the final fold.
