Description

Papercutting Geometric Designs Inspired by Nature brings together 25 unique projects that showcase how mathematical principles can be applied to create intricate and beautiful works of art.

Through clear explanations, you'll learn about the Golden Angle, Fibonacci numbers, symmetry, and other natural forms that underlie these designs. From the Japanese art of kirigami to the use of flaps and piercings, each project builds on the previous one to help you master various techniques.

With a focus on paper-art, this book explores the intersection of mathematics and nature, covering topics such as tesselations, 2-D weaving, 3-D form assembly, and display methods. The result is a collection of fascinating cut-paper sculptures that mirror the beauty of the natural world.
