Window Star
I designed this simple star specifically in order to fold it from a unique sheet of paper I got from John Gerard paperworks. It is hand-made paper with a wat...
Models with Pictures of Precreased Sheets
In this album you can find models for which a picture of the paper sheet pre-creased before folding is available. Have a look at How I Precrease Paper for Tessellations to learn how these patterns are created.
Hex Twist Star (CFW 93)
One of Shuzo Fujimoto’s basic stars which consists of just a single tessellation molecule without any additional paper around it. As with some other models i...
Four-Sink Base Tessellation (Larger Spacing)
This is a fold of just a simple Four-Sink Base Tessellation but with additional space of one grid unit between molecules. Folded from a sheet of red Nicolas ...
Ladybug Box
This box is decorated with a ladybug, which is a tessellation molecule. I used the same molecule for a BBU tile variant to make a decorated cube. While the f...
Box with Woven Triangles XVIII (white flax paper)
I folded this box in order to test John Gerard’s pure flax white paper. You can read more in my review of this paper.
Double Star
The inspiration for this design came to me from viewing the back side of Star a la Fujimoto III. Later, I found out that Andrey Hechuev earlier designed a te...
Braided Pinwheel Tessellation (variant C)
This is variant C of Braided Pinwheel Tessellation. The molecule looks like a combination of variant A and variant B molecule. There are quite a few layers o...
Parallelograms (clean fold)
When I originally folded Parallelograms in 2020, I designed a clean pre-crease pattern, pre-creased the sheet, and then… was unable to collapse it cleanly. I...
Yellow Brick Road
In line with the distinction made in my post on naming origami models, this design is called Brick Road while the particular work seen here is called Yellow ...
Box with Woven Triangles XI
In this Woven Triangles variant, pleats are not locked as strongly as in others, which will probably make folding a real multi-molecule tessellation neatly h...
Lucky Star Fractal Box (Simplified) Variant B
When you fold variants of my Lucky Star Box, you can extend the star to its fractal form. This particular variant emerges when you apply that procedure to th...
Crowding Butterflies (diagonal 48 grid)
In the description of my recent Hydrangea Tessellation fold, I mentioned that I had recently experimented with different variants of the “leaves” which form ...
Shifted Bricks
Despite similar looks, this tessellation is not Momotani’s Wall — it is a different pattern designed by myself. Its relation to Momotani’s Wall is roughly su...
Egg Cup II
This cup is a design derived from Lucky Star Box (Simplified) Variant B and the PreCP (Precrease Pattern) is the same. The paper used to form the star in the...
Box with Woven Triangles XIII
When folding this box, I thought I was making a clean fold of Box with Woven Triangles XVI, but I missed one detail and ended up with yet another design. You...
Box with Woven Triangles I
This is a simple box with a molecule of Woven Triangles Tessellation I. My first attempt at folding this model resulted in a slightly modified molecule and e...
San Francisco Bay
A view of San Francisco Bay, folded from a single square of Satogami paper. This origami painting is not based on any singular image, but a compilation of mu...
Shamrock Tessellation 1.1
This is an improved version of my Shamrock Tessellation. It uses Flagstone Paneling technique in order to hide pleats, so that each shamrock is separated fro...
Box with Woven Triangles VII
In this variant, the triangles are located in a deeper layer of paper, as if peeking through an opening in a wall.
Pythagorean Tiling with 3:2 Ratio
This model is the same as the first Pythagorean Tiling variant I folded, but the side length ratio of big squares to small squares is 3:2 instead of 2:1. As ...
Whirlwind Box
This box is decorated with Whirlwind molecule which can also be used for a tessellation. Its design is closely related to my Woven Triangles family, but I ga...
Shamrock 1.1 Box (Refold)
A new fold of my Shamrock 1.1 Box — compared to the previous one, I managed to fold and shape the stem in a cleaner way. The shamrock can be tessellated.
Pythagorean Tiling
The pattern this origami tessellation represents is known as Pythagorean Tiling or Two Squares Tessellation. I came up with this design independently, but it...
Box with Woven Triangles IV
This origami box is decorated with a tessellation molecule from the Woven Triangle family. In contrast to Woven Triangles I, II, and III, Woven Triangles IV ...
Triangles (16×16 grid)
This origami tessellation is derived from my earlier Parallelograms Tessellation. By piecing together two symmetric “halves” of a parallelogram, we end up wi...
Greek Cross Flagstone Tessellation
This origami tessellation was inspired by a pavement pattern I noticed some time ago in my home city of Lublin, Poland, at the old cemetery and in the open-a...
Lucky Star Fractal Tessellation
This is a tessellation of the Lucky Star Fractal. The standalone star was designed independently by several people, starting with Shuzo Fujimoto. I don’t kno...
Sunflower Tessellation (Refold)
It took me 1½ years before I decided to fold my Sunflower Tessellation once again, this time from rare yellow Elephant Hide paper. I think this is a better ...
Dune Tessellation
A new design of mine, Dune Tessellation (long slit variant).
Shark Teeth Corrugation (blue Elephant Hide)
Another fold of Shark Teeth Corrugation, this time from rare blue Elephant Hide paper.
Corrugation: Shark Teeth
My new iso-area origami corrugation which I called Shark Teeth due to the sharp triangular molecules of which it is composed. Like many other corrugations, t...
Bed of Nails 3D Tessellation
Bed of Nails 3D, an origami tessellation folded from a single sheet of Elephant Hide paper; no cutting or glue. It is possible to adjust the length of the sp...
Double-Blintzed Bird Base Corrugation
After tessellating the blintzed bird base, a natural next step for me was to double-blintz it. Bird base blintzed two times can be tessellated, and it result...
Saturn Tessellation
This tessellation is based on a 128×92 grid. Image is created from a four-sink-base tessellation by folding up some of the squares’ corners. While I’ve seen ...
Four-Sink-Base Tessellation
This kind of tessellation is not very interesting in itself, but has been invented and used by many authors independently as basis for more advanced designs....
