Paper Engineering & Mechanical Paper

Explore the intersection of engineering and paper craft through pop-up books, mechanical devices, and interactive paper sculptures. Learn the geometry behind paper folding, understand how valley and mountain folds create three-dimensional forms. Master kirigami cutting techniques and develop skills in creating paper mechanisms that move, transform, and surprise. Practice designing greeting cards, educational models, and artistic installations that demonstrate mechanical principles through paper. Connect with mathematical concepts like symmetry, angles, and structural engineering through hands-on paper projects.
