Additional information
by Jun Mitani (Author)
This book presents the design methods underlying 3D creations derived from computation. The author shows how different origami forms are designed from a common theory. The book includes numerous photos and design drawings called crease patterns, which are available for download on the author's website. Through the book's clear figures and descriptions, readers can easily create geometric 3D structures out of a set of lines and curves drawn on a 2D plane.
