Folding

Brief History of Origami-
Origami is the Japanese art of paper folding. 
The Japanese word origami is itself a compound of two smaller Japanese words: "ori", meaning to fold, and "kami", meaning paper. Although Origami is a Japanese word, origami first originated in China. Japanese origami began in the 6th Century when Buddhist monks introduced it to Japan.


Today origami is used a lot more than you would think. Design wise origami offers many package solutions currently in the marketplace. Origami provides strength, protects the product and often requires little or no glue.

A Poster no smaller than A3 is to be produced along with a DVD case. No glue is to be used but sewing is allowed. 
This week we learnt the importance of mockups- everything works in theory! So how can I produced a case without glue? Folding of course!
