Origami Tessellation Tutorial: Hydrangea Tiles (Shuzo Fujimoto and Peter Budai)
Folding starts at 4:40 (before that: how to adjust the crease pattern to vary the model)
Paper used in this video: 24 cm square of kami (9 1/2 in)
Finished model (low density tiling): side length of 12 cm (4 3/4 in)
This video describes how to fold different origami tessellations, all tiling of the Hydrangea designed by Shuzo Fujimoto. In particular, it explains how to fold a low, intermediate, and high density tiling, as well as further variations. I first learned about this technique from Peter Budai’s tiling guide.
Shuzo Fujimoto and Peter Budai kindly gave me permission to make this video accessible to you.
Also check out Peter Budai’s website for more of his work, including many free diagrams.
