Origami Fujimoto Cube

If you've folded one of the origami cubes found on this website, then you would know that they are all modular origami. You fold 6 units of the same design and assemble them to make a cube. That's why this origami cube by Shuzo Fujimoto is so special. You fold the cube from ONE sheet of paper! It involves some really cool maneuvering to shape the paper into a cube. Do try it!
