Kirigami-Inspired Rectangular Iso-Area Twist Tessellations in Architecture
摘要
Origami and kirigami techniques unveil artistic and structural synergies that establish a platform for innovative solutions in architectural design. This research presents a fusion of origami and kirigami principles in the manipulation of Momotani’s Wall tessellations, specifically through the deliberate incorporation of kirigami-inspired incisions. The strategic application of these cuts in hand-folded prototypes refines the folding process by reducing the resistance to folding. This newfound flexibility allows the deployment of the structure whilst constraining selected facets to the plane.
