ABSTRACT
Tessellation folders are largely unconcerned with the paper resembling an object or animal. They simply enjoy the pattern and the process. The goal is not a base, but rather constraints in the form of polygonal twists that create the structure of a tessellation. If you understand the structure, you can substitute different polygonal twists for others that share the correct properties with the original connection. This creates a multitude of possibilities, which can be overwhelming to a beginner. Hence, this book is primarily concerned with only six twists that are useful for getting started. After you understand how to wield these effectively, you can learn how to create your own.
