There is a separate page for Modular Designs, which are a form of multiple sheet design in which the multiple parts self-integrate into a stable geometric design.

Non-self-integrating multiple sheet designs and designs which are self-integrating but not geometric are included on this page.

This page includes designs made from parts which are uncut, slit or cut.
