Twists, Tilings and Tessellations – Mathematical Methods for Geometric Origami
With this monumental work, Robert J. Lang offers a deep and structured exploration of geometric origami. This book goes far beyond simple folding to become a true scientific and artistic reference.
Tessellations, repetitive structures, the geometry of the fold: each concept is precisely analyzed, illustrated by diagrams, and enriched by a rigorous mathematical approach.
- One of the world's leading references on origami tessellations
- Over 700 pages of rich and structured content
- A unique approach blending mathematics, art, and folding
- Numerous diagrams and detailed analyses
- A foundational work for long-term progression
A reference book on geometric origami
This book stands as an exceptional synthesis of research surrounding tessellations and geometric structures in origami. It does not limit itself to showing "how to fold," but explains why the structures work.
Each chapter develops fundamental concepts, allowing the reader to understand the deep mechanisms of repetitive folding and reuse them in their own creations.
This book is not intended for beginners. Its richness and density require some experience in origami as well as an interest in the mathematical aspects of folding.
It is primarily aimed at folders wishing to deepen their understanding and reach a new level in their practice.
