Decades of independent folding and experimentation.

William Zicker is an independent origami designer and creator of TriOrigami. His work has been published by OrigamiUSA. Triangle Origami Book gathers original designs developed through decades of iterative paper-folding design.

Triangles bind these designs with a common thread—sometimes as the starting sheet, sometimes as structure, and sometimes simply as inspiration.
