Abstract
Through the study of origami, an interdisciplinary approach investigates the mathematical, architectural, and structural aspects of folded structures, which help to understand how paper folding can be used as a medium to solve structural and aesthetic problems. In this context, origami presents an interface to gain cognitive experience on spatial configurations and form finding, and acts as an effective tool for further morphological explorations in the architectural design process. Based on undertaking a data collection exercise with architecture students, origami has proved to be a rich source of inspiration and has found its way into a wide range of design applications. It has even led to the discovery of new forms and methods of construction.
