Places to Be Origami Flagstone

 If you like flagstone tessellations then you'll like this one. It's a cool one. 

I actually mapped it out as rhombuses pointing at each other and then away from each other. Using some triangles to make it work. 

When I finally folded it, the pattern came out more like vertical rhombuses flanked by triangles with a row of horizontal rhombuses between the repetitions. 

That's how I see it anyway. I'm sure others will see it differently. 

However you might perceive it, it's a pretty fascinating design. 

All these years later. Hundred of tessellations folded and it still blows my mind what can be done with a single sheet of uncut paper.  



It's a somewhat difficult tessellation  to fold. As are most flagstones. In addition to the shapes featured on the front of the paper there are a lot of triangles to work out on the back. 

I used 28 lb white printer paper. And my crease pattern diagram is included at the end of this post. 

I would love to hear about it if you decide to fold it.
