Mathematical Origami - David Mitchell


A classic book by David Mitchell, first published in 1997. The book focuses on creating beautiful, fundamental mathematical shapes, such as polyhedra, using only paper folding without scissors or glue. You will learn so much from this wonderful book by an acclaimed author.

Key Features of the Book

  • A4 Paper Designs: Every shape described in the book is achieved using standard A4 paper, making the models accessible for classrooms and hobbyists.
  • Educational Focus: The book is aimed at mathematics teachers, as the process of creating the starting shapes and folding the modules is inherently mathematical.
  • Modular Origami: It uses modular techniques to build robust 3D structures, including:
    Convex Polyhedra: Cubes, tetrahedrons, octahedrons, and icosahedrons.
  • Rhombic Polyhedra: Rhombic dodecahedrons and stars.
  • Planar Polyhedra: Flat-faced geometric forms.
