Origami Hexagonal Box Printable Instructions

This elegant hexagonal box was designed by Nick Robinson, based on a model by the legendary Shuzo Fujimoto. While the original is folded from a full square, Nick’s clever adaptation begins with just half a square and greatly simplifies the folding sequence and collapse. The result is more accessible, quicker to fold, and just as satisfying, without losing the beauty of the geometric forms. And since it only uses half a square, you can fold two boxes from a single sheet of paper.
