Curved Folding

This study began by a student at Bauhaus and is based off of a circle instead of a square. It's a series of concentric circles with alternating folds. At Bauhaus, the students used knives to score. I had the advantage of using the laser cutter to achieve the necessary scoring. That's the "Michigan Difference." Folding it was obviously a pain, though. Once I understood the basic underlying concept behind curved folding, I could easily and quickly produce more files to test out, yielding more studies.
