Origami part 1 : Introduction

I found about modular origamis originally with a video on making a Menger's sponge out of business card \cite{origamimengersponge}. I become quickly interested in this method to build things out off paper cubes but my cubic realizations are for another article (future ref).

Origami part 2 : Platonic Solids and Colorization

In the Micmaths' video, the base polyhedra are the 5 platonic solids, namely: the tetrahedron, the cube (or hexahedron), the octahedron, the dodecahedron and the icosahedron.

Origami part 3 : Rhombic Polyhedra

I found out about rhombic polyhedra with two videos. The first one is a video from standupmaths where he makes a rhombic Bilinski dodecahedron out of cardboard.

Origami part 4 : Johnson Deltahedra

Quite a long time later after making the rhombic polyhedra, I stumbled upon a book on mathematics the title of which I don't remember.

Origami part 5 : Johnson Coronas

From the Johnson solids, at the end of the list are the coronas, I made a modular origami version of them using tracing paper quite some time ago now.

Origami part 6 : Archimedean solids

During the summer, I got my hand on 4 sets of origami papers with 10 colors each so I spend some time building modular origami version of Archimedean solids.

Origami part 7 : Polycubes

From a simple origami module, you can make thousands of polycube shapes and customize them to your heart's content !
