After a successful Exquisite Modular Origami, this second volume is a natural follow up. Handpicked by the author, the models are not only beautiful, but have been subjected to rigorous design criteria such as sturdiness of the locking mechanism, easy starting paper proportions, mostly squares, and absence of inserts or separate joining units. The aesthetic appeal lies in clean well defined lines. The designs are all-new and like before, works of three new, very creative guest artists have been included as well. In grayscale, the book is practically a bargain because it is as effective as folding from a color book. Color photos of most designs are on the cover for your viewing pleasure. Just when you think you are running out of satisfying modular origami to fold, here now you have dozens more exciting new ones to enjoy.

Download or read book Tamayura2 written by Tomoaki Yano and published by . This book was released on 2021-04 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the second in a series following TAMAYURA (2019). Like the previous book, all the units presented are named "Ohana" units. The "Ohana" unit is a universal unit that can be used to make various shapes of "Kusudama". The main difference is that this book uses rectangular paper, whereas the previous book used all square paper. By using rectangles, you can achieve polyhedral shapes, including decagons, which are not covered by squares. "Ohana" is the Hawaiian word for family. You can create a "Kusudama" with many expressions, just like a family. Please enjoy the changes. This book introduces a total of 22 different types of "Ohana" units, from the basic form to modified units and combinations, as well as color variations. Each variation supports multiple polyhedra. The models in this book cover 18 different polyhedral shapes, for a total of 373 possible models. In this book, 82 of them are shown as examples. There are also many unmade "Kusudama", so please try making them. Original variations are also welcome, so please expand the world of "Ohana" unit.
