Talk about origami, the image of Japanese and their minimalist/miniature culture begins to flash in my mind. Origami is the art of paper folding. The goal of this art is to create a given result using geometric folds and crease patterns. Origami refers to all types of paper folding, even those of non-Japanese origin.

Nearly everyone has made paper airplanes or tried origami when they were children. Take these memories further when you download dozens of 3D-Papercraft projects for free. Canon has this list of download-able tutorials that comes in pdf format, all you have to do is print it. I don’t think you need a canon printer, any printer will do.

The image below are paper art, not your normal card-board model making materials. A combination of several origami into paper architecture.
