  1. Origami design secrets : mathematical methods for an ancient art

    Lang, Robert J. (Robert James), 1961-
    2nd ed. - Boca Raton, FL : CRC Press, c2012.

    "This book is an opus of world-famous origamist Robert J. Lang that presents the mathematical and design principles he uses to create original origami. The techniques are accompanied by folding instructions that illustrate them, building up to very advanced models at the end of the book. The second edition includes three new/highly revised chapters on box pleating, uniaxial box pleating, and polygon packing as well as smaller revisions throughout and improved illustrations"--Provided by publisher.The magnum opus of one of the world's leading origami artists, the second edition of Origami Design Secrets reveals the underlying concepts of origami and how to create original origami designs. Containing step-by-step instructions for 26 models, this book is not just an origami cookbook or list of instructions-it introduces the fundamental building blocks of origami, building up to advanced methods such as the combination of uniaxial bases, the circle/river method, and tree theory. With corrections and improved illustrations, this new expanded edition also covers uniaxial box pleating, introduces the new design technique of hex pleating, and describes methods of generalizing polygon packing to arbitrary angles. With coverage spanning the foundations of origami construction and advanced methods using both paper and pencil and custom-built free software, Origami Design Secrets helps readers cultivate the intuition and skills necessary to develop their own designs. It takes them beyond merely following a recipe to crafting a work of art.

  2. Origami design secrets : mathematical methods for an ancient art

    Lang, Robert J., 1927-
    Natick, MA : AK Peters, c2003.

    Robert J. Lang, one of the worlds foremost origami artists and scientists, presents the never-before-described mathematical and geometric principles that allow anyone to design original origami, something once restricted to an elite few. From the theoretical underpinnings to detailed step-by-step folding sequences, this book takes a modern look at the centuries-old art of origami.
