This star is as simple as it gets — literally just a single rearranged hex twist made on a hexagon of the right size relative to the twist’s central hexagon....
Single-Sheet Stars
Single-sheet models whose main subjects include abstract star symbols.
This page lists models of a single type. You might be interested in folding instructions instead.
Hex Twist Star (CFW 87)

Ten level-3 Lucky Star Fractals, folded from metallic paper in different colors. This is just a small subset of how many times I have folded this model over ...
Box with Color-Change Star (Hexagonal)
The technique used for this hexagonal box can be used for other polygons as well, resulting in boxes with a different number of sides. However, the minimum n...
Lucky Star Fractal (Open Back)
This model is a variant of the Lucky Star Fractal (aka Logarithmic Star), designed by myself and independently by many others before me, starting with Shuzo ...
Lucky Star Fractal (level 3)
A level-3 fold of Lucky Star Fractal, this time from gray metallic paper. I rarely fold a model multiple times, but this particular model is so nice I have f...
Lucky Star Fractal
This is a recursive version of the Lucky Star molecule. Just like the non-recursive version, it can be tessellated or used for decorating a box. The back of ...
Twirl Bowl
This hexagonal dish is created as an intermediate step while collapsing my Sunk Star Box.
Sunk Star Boxes (two enantiomers)
Two folds of my Sunk Star Box with different twisting directions, side by side. Wherever there’s a twist in origami, we get two possible versions of the fold...
Sunk Star Box (Hexagonal)
The star in the center of this box is a kind of twist which does not lie flat and therefore can form a box but not a tessellation. This model is a part of a ...
Sunk Star Box (Square)
The star in the center of this box is a kind of twist which does not lie flat and therefore can form a box but not a tessellation. This model started a serie...
