Kirigami

Paper folding and cutting techniques applied to architecture, design, and spatial structures.

Kirigami extends traditional origami by incorporating cuts alongside folds to create complex three-dimensional forms. Designers use these techniques to explore structural systems, spatial organization, and the relationship between material constraints and geometric possibility.

The community examines kirigami applications in architectural design, from pavilions and educational spaces to residential structures that manipulate light, privacy, and visual connection through layered cut and folded surfaces.
