Principles of Design Foldable

1) Please grab a large construction paper: Colour of your choice

2) Then one of each regular size papers: Pink, Blue, Orange and Yellow

Fold the construction

paper in three

sections:

Starting with the Orange Paper:

• Fold the paper lengthways in half – like a hot dog bun.

• Note: The folded area is to the right, and it opens from the left (opposite of a book)

Split into three sections:

You will have to cut the flap with scissors.

Remember fold is on the right side!!!

Next we will work with the Blue paper:

• Fold this paper just like the Orange: Lengthways – Hot Dog Bun fold

• The fold will be just like a book. Fold section on the left and its opens on the right side.

Split into five sections:

You will have to cut the flap with scissors.

Remember fold is on the

left side!!!

Next we will work with the Yellow paper:

• Fold the paper width wise in half. Than unfold the paper. • Now take the top edge of the yellow paper and fold it till it meets with the fold/line in the middle. • Do the same with the

bottom edge

Split into four

sections:You will

have to cut the flap with

scissors.

Next we will work with the Pink paper:• Fold the paper in a

triangle shape. This will help create a square. (taco fold)

• Cut the extra length off. The part that extends past the triangle/square.

• Unfold the paper, and fold the paper in the opposite – creating 4 triangles.

With the Pink paper:

• Open the paper, take each corner of the paper and fold it to the middle ‘X’ part on the page.

• This will divide the page into 4 different sections. Just as seen here.

Now glue down accordingly: (watch your folds!)
