As the word origami means 'folding paper' it doesn't exactly fit. Perhaps we could call this 'brick folding'--one of the many lost brick bending arts. This build primarily consists of two simple patterns of 1x4 plates that are mirror images of each other. When you interweave them together with hinged connections they are able to tightly fold up, and then expand, all fairly easily. I’ve added extra bits around the outside edges just help foster the illusion of squareness in its compact form. For updates and exclusive content, join our free community on Patreon.
