In origami exist a world of patterns which are used to create tessellations. These tessellations are repetitive combination of folds that create a structural members in certain directions creating a simple structural system that allows deformation in certain directions. From the multiple patterns created few were studied and one of them was selected to be. transformed into an architectural element. Breaking down the pattern and extracting a single module we get a pattern inscribed in a regular hexagon. Within this pattern the creases are divided in mountain and valley folds that indicate the direction of fold.
BLUE dashed lines – Mountain folds
RED dotted lines – Valley folds
