In the Pipeline
At Taro's Origami Studio, we are constantly thinking of new and
exciting ways to recreate the world in paper! Currently we have a fire
house, and several new cars in the pipeline. We can't wait to introduce
them to you on this Web site. |
ORIGAMI IS WORLD ART
The word 'origami' is Japanese
that literally means to fold ('ori') and paper
('gami'). But did you know that Europe has its own paper folding
tradition that developed separately from Japan? The earliest known European 'origami' is
probably a 16th century Spanish baptismal certificate made into the shape of a
little bird called 'pajarita'. |

2. The
Japanese Bullet Train - "Shinkansen"
For the Shinkansen buffs out there, this is based on the 300
series model of the Japanese Bullet Train. It's currently being
sold in Japan. (click here) We're hoping we'll
be able to sell them on-line soon.

Folding Time: 5 to 10 minutes

4. The
Tractor-Trailer Truck
If you can fold the bus, you can fold this truck - there're only a
few more steps involved. This truck acts as a basis for
all different styles of truck models.

5. The
Jet
This took some doing, too, but we think it turned out
great! Of course, this, too, is made from a single sheet of
origami paper.
Skill level: Medium
Folding Time: 15 to 25 minutes
6. The Twin Engine Aircraft
|
This is the most challenging model we have. As complicated
as it may look, it's still made from a single sheet of paper!
Skill level: Advanced
