This review is from: Folding Architecture 9th print (Paperback)
I had heard a lot about this book and how great it was. But I found this book to be useless. The book is small and so the pictures in it are small and of poor quality. There is only once in the whole book where it attempts to show you how to make some interesting forms but the pictures are so blurred and dark that you can't make anything out. most of the book contains images of finished ideas. It's like a cook book that shows you 50 finished cakes and doesn't explain how to start the cake, just shows you what it should look like. Don't buy this book, it's rubbish. Rubbish Rubbish Rubbish. I don't know how this book sold so many copies, maybe people are using it for toilet paper, on second thought it's useless for that as it's too small.

This review is from: Folding Architecture: Spatial, Structural and Organizational Diagrams (Paperback)
it's a nice little book to have around. Many people have asked to borrow it from me and were happy with what they gained out of it.I haven't really used it but i found it nice to page through.
no one NEEDS to have this book, but it is nice to have handy for those moments in a pinch when you just need something to turn the crank in a design process for you.

are you kidding me?, May 12 2008
By T. C. Chan - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Folding Architecture 9th print (Paperback)
perhaps i expected a little too much from this book. but personally i just don't think the content is clear at all. sure they provide you a template of how they cut and score the paper but the models don't look like they have carefully designed. even for this low price it still doesn't justify, since you can find most of the stuff from google anyway.
