Book Reviews of Floral Origami Globes
Book Review: Beautiful and fascinating origami balls
Summary: 5 Stars
This book builds on Tomoko Fuse's earlier books that asssembled boxes from perfectly square pieces of paper. The shapes in this book use rectangular pieces of paper (half-squares), usually in two colours or more. You are instructed on how to build basic cube-based, octahedran-based and icosahedron-based shapes (if you have the patience). The repeating units are basically the same, but Tomoko shows many variations to embellish them. The cube shapes require 6-base units, the octahedran requires 12-base units and the icosahedrons (shown on the front-cover) requires 30-base units (60 rectangular pieces of paper).
I'd try Tomoko's boxes before tackling these. Fitting the base units together requires the same skills and the 30-unit ball can get fiddley.
I started to see wrapping paper in a whole new light - cutting up 4cm by 8cm rectangles for the next ball.
Good fun and beautiful results.
