PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Origami master Fuse's brilliant book is an almost wordless pictorial road map to creating palm-size paper boxes and containers. At first glance, the projects look daunting: the layout combines limited text with a series of step-by-step diagrams, accompanied by photos of the finished products made of paper in a variety of vibrant colors and patterns. Fuse starts with the traditional Matsu box, a simple four-sided square box folded from a single sheet of paper, then follows with instructions for the lid. Each successive box is made with additional folds to form a variety of different shapes triangles, rectangles, pyramid shapes, and octagonal boxes with extravagant lids made of several paper sizes folded into the shape of elaborate flowers. With clearly drawn instructions and photographed finished projects, the book is an excellent introduction to an ancient art form.
