Reinventing the Origami Style

 

Origami is a Japanese technique that consists of folding paper for the creation of original designs. The word origami comes from two Japanese words ‘ori’ (folding) and ‘kami’ (paper). An alternative already used in fields such as architecture, graphic design, interior design or the textile industry.

For creative minds, origami can be your best allied. You just need the paper (newspaper), the time and let your imagination fly. Origami is one of the best techniques to boost your creativity. In this post, we show you some projects where origami is the main protagonist. Get inspired!

Eco-Packaging

Origami is increasingly used in the field of ecological packaging, and this technique allows to create original designs and friends of the environment. Two qualities increasingly demanded by both companies and consumers. It is noteworthy that, although in the past origami used only paper, at present this discipline includes other materials such as cardboard or paperboard, more resistant.  Some projects as ‘Origami Brown Paper Bags’  or ‘Egg Packaging’  bet on a minimalist and useful design.

The interior design has not missed the opportunity to experiment with this technique, giving rise to fun designs that bring personality to the spaces.

In the matter of furniture we find very interesting pieces of paper with the main objective of obtaining functional and practical spaces. In this type of designs, materials such as cardboard or felt are used. Who has not ever deserted to be able to bend that chair that bothers to him when passing?

Eternal Origami Crane

The origami crane is an ancient symbol in Japanese culture. The figure of the crane is associated with values such as happiness, prosperity, health or well-being. Here, we could say that ‘who has a crane has a treasure’.
