INTRODUCTION

Selecting the most appropriate paper, thinking about where and how we will use our box, and imagining the places and people with which it will come into contact with is great fun. And by varying the type of paper and color combinations we can create a range of different effects.

Despite being a very simple object, an origami box contains the emotions of the person who created it. With this in mind, I warmly offer you this book and hope that it will inspire a sort of secret smile between the person who builds the box and the person who uses it.

In origami there is no doubt that the primary pleasure comes from folding the paper. But there is another pleasure, which comes immediately afterwards, and that lies in being able to admire and use the objects created. From this point of view, making origami boxes can provide a great sense of satisfaction.

This book contains a wide variety of box models, some very easy, others more complex, all of which can be made with a single sheet of paper. In most cases, the essential structure of the box, made from a single sheet, is accompanied by additional elements, such as a reinforced base or a divider, which can be made using further sheets. This also gives you the opportunity to enjoy creating various color combinations.
