Geometric Strategies in Creating Origami Paper Lampshades: Folding Miura-ori, Yoshimura, and Waterbomb Tessellations

This chapter describes geometric strategies in origami design to create paper lanterns that gleam with the luminous gradations of light. While the design of origami paper lampshades is largely based on origami design, it also presents new challenges due t
