Tessellation Academy Volume 2 [Digital Book]

Tessellation Academy: Volume 2 

Tessellation Academy: Volume 2 is the direct sequel to the first volume and gathers the educational content from months 13 to 24 of the Tessellation Academy, the monthly program by Madonna Yoder, dedicated to the in-depth exploration of origami tessellations. This ebook is intended for folders already familiar with the basics who wish to explore more hybrid structures, depth variations, and complex symmetry extensions.

Key Themes

The topics included in this ebook cover a wide range of advanced structures, including:

• Hybrid square twists
• Hexagons & Triangles symmetry extensions with 6-fold symmetry (extension 2)
• Mixed-depth rhombus twists
• Hexagons & Triangles tilings with 3-fold symmetry
• Extended tilings with right-triangle and square twists
• Structures starting with hexagon-triangle-hexagon sequences
• Hexagon-triangle-rhombus and hexagon-triangle-trapezoid variations
• Symmetry extensions for square tilings
• Hybrid hexagon twists and mixed-depth hexagon twists
• Clusters of four triangle twists

Detailed Content

This ebook includes 96 origami tessellation diagrams. Each model is presented over three pages:

• A cover page with front and back photos of the fold and detailed information (tiling, twist types, designer, grid alignment fraction)
• A page featuring the crease pattern drawn on a 64-division grid
• An annotated page indicating twist centers and their connections by folds

Some patterns partially overlap with those in the Advent of Tess series, but three themes in this volume explore folding styles completely absent from that collection.
