ART OF FOLDING, THE

Restricted for a long time to the paper-based creations of origami, the art of folding now spans a wide range of creative fields, from design and architecture to industry, furnishing, fashion and jewellery. As the art form has expanded into new areas, an increasingly diverse range of materials such as cardboard, textiles, metals and plastic have been given new dimensions through the art of folding. This beautifully illustrated book, based around artist profiles and interviews with designers that set out their thoughts on folding and their use of folds in their works, offers a panorama of the creative potential of this art form. It is also available in Spanish.
