Modular Adaptations |
|
Modular
adaptations are modular designs created by tweaking, or
repurposing, traditional single-sheet or modular
paperfolds. I
very much like this way of designing. It makes me feel
connected to those, often unknown and unremembered,
paperfolders who first pioneered the exploration of what
folding paper can do.
