Complete Origami covers many techniques found in the art of paper folding and includes basic valley and mountain folds, modular origami, crease-and-collapse and much more. From a minimal Three.fold Elephant and a delicate Tsuru to the refined Cormorant on a Rock and a sublime Stargate, this collection features a range of projects ideal for novice folders and origami purists alike. As the folder becomes confident with one technique, he/she builds on top of the sills, with more advanced projects.

Each project is beautifully photogrpahed and accompanied by easy-to-follow step-by-step illustrations to guide the reader throughout the folding process. With Complete Origmai, paperfolders can conjure up an Egyptian landscape or a heartfelt Lover's Knot.
