Description

This is a modular origami kusudama, also known as the Pavement Star. It is constructed from multiple identical units, each folded from a single sheet of paper, which are then interlocked without glue to form a stellated geometric sphere. The model showcases a striking two-tone pattern, with the reverse side of the paper forming white triangular accents against the primary teal color.
