Solving Autumn Leaves by Arseniy K


 This origami tessellation is one by Arseniy Koom that I was able to recreate. He named it Autumn Leaves. 

At first glance, it looked pretty straightforward. And in truth, it was one of his easier to solve designs. 

The paper that I used didn't really do it justice, but it came together okay for the most part. 

A lot of his designs require some pretty sturdy paper to execute them to their fullest. 

I personally, love a tricky one, even if it doesn't love me. 

Crease pattern is at the bottom of this post.

Infinite Triangles Origami Tessellation

Image
This is just a flash idea I had. There was no planning involved. No inspiration. I just started folding and followed the lure of the creases in the paper.  Upon seeing the finished result, It kind of reminds me of Robin Scholz's Triphilia tessellation, but the construction is definitely different and I was not thinking of that as I was crafting it. The similarity is that you can arrange the layering of the triangles into different patterns of your choice.  I went looking and discovered  I had folded this a few years ago and called it Triangle Temptations . I didn't realize this until after I'd completed this model.  Apparently, according to my original post, I'd seen someone else fold it on flickr and recreated it.  This happens sometimes. You hit on an idea and it's something you've done and forgotten. They linger in the back of your brain and come forward unexpectedly.  That previous version differed from this one slightly, in that it used double sized cross g

Solving Tessellation Hubble by GatheringFolds

 This is another tessellation designed by gatheringfolds that I reverse engineered and then folded. She calls it 'Hubble'. After the telescope, I'm guessing.  It was neither very easy nor very hard to figure out. The central array of seven hexagons was easy enough to determine. As were the triangle twists around them. I did get stuck for a little bit on the next layer. The two different kinds of connections that the rhombuses had to the hexagons took some fiddling to determine.   It was a very low humidity day when I folded it. So the paper was pretty crisp. I used ordinary printer paper. Widely spaced twist fold designs such as this almost always work very nicely with standard paper.  Her original model used a larger grid and therefore had more repetition. But my small grid fits the first part of the second iterations. It also still illustrates how to fold the entire pattern regardless of what size grid is used. It's always an excellent exercise to solve the tessellat

Interstellar Transmissions Tessellation

  solvingorigamitessellations.com This is one of those tessellations that when you come up with it you think that you've really hit upon something unexpected. And you have. But it's also one of those tessellations that is very difficult to actually fold .  It's well worth it though. The finished product is a dazzling array of rhombuses twirling around small offset hex stars.  It's a densely packed fold that's hard to execute and time consuming, but those are my favorite kind! I actually folded it quite randomly as my baseline. Then after it had a chance to rest under some weight, I went back and rearranged the mountain and valley folds into the final pattern.  For tricky tessellations such as this one, that seems to be the least frustrating way to go about it.  This is an original tessellation that I designed.  Crease pattern is available at the bottom for those who might want it.
