Floral Origami to Beautify the Four Seasons
This book by Makoto Yamaguchi offers 33 origami flower models, organized by season. Roses, tulips, sunflowers, orchids, nemophilas, dahlias, camellias, and winter peonies make up a diverse collection for folding decorative flowers throughout the year.
The models range from classic flowers to more original compositions. The section dedicated to roses is particularly interesting. It showcases several different approaches, including the Yamaguchi Rose #2—a rose distinct from the famous Toshikazu Kawasaki rose, yet equally elegant.
Book highlights:
- 33 origami flowers inspired by the four seasons.
- Several rose variations, including the famous Yamaguchi Rose #2.
- Models suitable for decoration, bouquets, and handmade gifts.
- Diagrams accompanied by photos for certain important steps.
- An ideal book for fans of floral origami and paper compositions.
