Folded from 40 square sheets of European kraft paper. Each unit is folded from one square and each iteration is assembled from 8 units. This is a fractal design, so you can theoretically fold as many iterations as you’d like. This model is essentially an octagonal version of my Interstellar design. The units are very different, but they are both inspired by the geometry of spidrons.
