World’s most complex origami

World's most complex origami, by Satoshi Kamiya --- Check out this video showing three amazing creations by master origamist Satoshi Kamiya. Hard to believe, but each of the pieces shown in this video was folded from a single sheet of paper.

The red dragon, made from a 1.2 x 1.2 meter sheet, took only 6 hours to fold. The yellow hornet was commissioned by luxury retailer Hermes and was put on display in their New York store. The white dragon is fashioned from a 2 x 2 meter sheet of paper. “As far as I know, it is the most complex origami in the world,” says Kamiya in the video.

Check out Kamiya’s gallery for photos of his other paper creations.

    Any art supplies shop should have A0 paper which is approx 1.2 x 0.8 metres, however for 1.2m square you would need to get the special 2A0 paper which is twice that size (1.2×1.7m) then cut it down to a square. I don’t know how common 2A0 paper is, I’ve not noticed anyone selling it.
