  The 'origami ball' on the bottom left doesn't link to instructions.In case anyone wants to make it, you can google 'venus kusudama'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TNwPzwtAme4https://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/heres-the-venus

  It should probably be noted somewhere that this is more "papercraft" than "origami", and the thing you download is just the net of the solid, not instructions to make what's in the picture.Also saddened by the lack of Catalan solids

  It is possible to fold a cube from a single sheet. The cube on the page is made from several units. The method for folding a cube from a single sheet was independently invented by Kazou Haga, Kunihiko Kasahara, Jeannine Mosely, me, and probably some others as well.https://www.iwriteiam.nl/box-fold.html

  Kusudama is your keyword if you want to learn how to do these :)The 5 intersecting tetrahedra is particularly cool, and I've used these instructions to assemble it http://origametry.net/fit.html

  At the danger of spamming this (well - posting it for the second time in 6 months) - I'm still trying to find the select demographic who appreciate this:https://ixxyxr.github.io/polyhydra-web/?m=3

  I always wait for someone to post origami on Hacker News so that I can publicize my own work on origami: https://royalsocietypublishing.org/rsos/article/7/2/200011/9...

  I was lucky enough to meet the guy behind mathigon for dinner a long time ago. He's brilliant! I'm always excited to see what he is up to! Glad to see this voted up.

  This is not origami.

  Modular origami construction of various mathematical solids was pioneered by Tomoko Fuse in the 1980s.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tomoko_Fusehttps://www.amazon.com/stores/Tomoko-Fuse/author/B004L2C2A4/...The author is still creating new work and writing new books.
