Miura Tessellation Study
This exploration attempted to take a simple tessellation folded using a material of "negligible" thickness, which was then transferred to "thick" materials. Foam core was the base "thick" folding material and the MDF was a study to tease out different three-dimensional properties using the same folding pattern.

Miura Tessellation Application
The above study was inspired by the application of the geometric logic behind the Miura tessellation in a more erratic and asymmetrical manner.

Rotational Folding Study
I have also experimented with rotational, curved folding, experimenting with asymmetrical forms using modeling software to generate the folding patterns.
