Folded polyhedra -- A-models from squares -- B-models from triangles or pentagons -- C-models: combinations of triangles, squares, pentagons, and hexagons -- D-models: horse and rider in different sizes -- . E-models: additional mountain folds and enveloping -- F-models: centaurs - combined horse/rider function -- G-models: complex centaurs -- H-models with supports -- I-models: new chiral forms -- Extensions of polyhedra forms -- J-models: extensions of the cubo-octahedron and the rhombic cubo-octahedron -- K -models: extended dodecahedra -- L-models: extensions of truncated tetrahedra, octahedra, and icosahedra -- M-models: extensions of octahedron, icosahedron, and rhombic dodecahedron -- Appendix. "Explore the reaches of your imagination by combining art, craft, and mathematics to create the age-old geometric form of the polyhedra. More than 50 projects use just one center point to create shapes that are folded symmetrically and build upon each other. With easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions, you can construct models from regular polygons, including equilateral triangles, squares, pentagons, hexagons, octagons, and decagons. These engaging projects require active, mental participation and can aid in reshaping familiar thought patterns as well as keeping your focus on the present moment as a form of relaxation. Also included is a wealth of detail on the subject of geometry. Once a requirement for entry into the philosopher Plato's Academy, now geometry can be enjoyed by everyone with an eye for fun. The book includes a chapter of tips to create your own designs"--Publisher's description. Origami Polyhedra in art. Polyhedra Models. Paper work. Geometry in art. Binder, Katrin, translator.
