As part for my current Architecture project i am analysing origami and particularly tesselations for possible application in creating a building fabric that can evolve and be hugely flexible.

This tesselation is a pretty standard tessellation made of hexagons and equilateral triangles. I drew the original pattern on Autocad and printed it out on a plotter. I think its A1 in size. I then spent 3-5 hours folding all the mountain and valley folds. This video shows just the final stage of the actual tesselating. Boring i know, i went through 5 films, thats why my desk is in front of my Mac.

What do you think?

i have the rest of my work on my blog soon so check it out; http://tyrertecture.tumblr.com/
