Folding in architecture

    Folding is an architectural design method which is based on mathematics, perspective and fragmentation. It was founded and developed by Masahiro Chatani, who is a Japanese architect. 
  
 We fold, curve, crumble, etc to turn 2D paper sheets into 3D objects. In my opinion, it widens the list of concepts and gives the buildings a fresh look. In my case, as an observer, also a creator, it made me think of many different types of buildings or rooftops and more, giving me lots of inspiration.
