P
olyhedra are beautiful shapes that have fascinated people throughout the ages. In ancient
times, they were thought to possess magic powers. The Greeks knew of the five Platonic
solids and associated them with the nature of the universe. Over time, more polyhedra
were discovered, and they became better understood. Physical models of these geometric
shapes have been formed in many media, including wood, metal, and paper. In this
collection, you will learn to make many beautiful polyhedra, each by folding a single square
sheet of paper. Also, you will see how origami skill, mathematics, and polyhedra can be
combined in an elegant way.
I am dedicated to the pursuit of creating each origami model from a single uncut square. I developed
methods for folding animals with that ideal at a time when using multiple sheets and cutting was prevalent.
My techniques, discoveries, and ideals influenced many creators, leading to a more developed art. Now I
wish to do the same with polyhedra.
There has been a movement, over the past 15 years or so, of creating geometric shapes with modular
origami—the use of multiple sheets that are folded into identical units (modules) and then interlocked. For
example, each edge of a polyhedron may be formed by one unit, and several units will interlock to form a
face or vertex. I wanted to explore how these same shapes could be created from a single sheet of paper.
Designing polyhedra from a single uncut square has led me to many new techniques and discoveries in
origami that I wish to share with you.
My models are designed to be folded from standard origami paper (sometimes called kami). This
paper comes in squares, typically 6 to 10 inches wide, that are white on one side and colored on the other.
In the diagrams in this book, the colored side is represented by gray shading. Most of the models end up
with only the colored side showing (and so single-colored paper could be used), but several designs create
color patterns by exposing the white side as well as the colored side. Origami can also be folded from a
variety of other papers, including standard notebook or printer paper, or from even thicker paper, using the
technique of wet-folding.
This may be a good place to point out some folding techniques employed in this collection that
may be less familiar to the casual folder. Most of the instructions begin with sequences of folds that are not
folds in the final model but rather are used to find particular landmarks, such as one seventh of the edge
of the paper or 30° through the center of the paper. Such sequences entail making small creases, such as
folding the paper in half but only creasing on the left edge. In addition, I aimed to keep the faces of the final
model with as few creases as possible, which led to some steps that require creasing only along part of a
fold.
After the crease pattern defining the faces of the polyhedron is formed, the model becomes three-
dimensional, typically at a step to either puff out or push in at some central point on the paper. The folding
generally ends by tucking or locking one or more tabs. Throughout the folding instructions, symmetry plays
a large role, which simplifies the folding.
The models range from simple to very complex, most being intermediate or complex. Still, none
of the models are too difficult, and even the most complex has fewer than 60 steps. The models have been
test-folded by many folders.
In Part I, “Designing Origami Polyhedra,” there are references to several polyhedra whose
directions are not given in this volume. My hope is to write a second volume of origami polyhedra that will
include them.
The illustrations conform to the internationally accepted Randlett-Yoshizawa conventions. (See
“Symbols” (page xi)). Origami paper can be found in many hobby shops or purchased by mail from
OrigamiUSA, 15 West 77th Street, New York, NY 10024-5192.
Many people helped with this project. I thank Brian Webb and John Szinger for their continued
support throughout this project. I thank Daniel Spaulding for his contributions. I thank John Szinger
for folding some of the polyhedra featured on the cover. In particular, I thank my editors, Jan Polish,
Charlotte Henderson, and Ellen Ulyanova. I also thank the many folders who proofread the diagrams.
