Overview
Modular Origami Paper Pack is the art and technique of folding multiple sheets of paper and then interlocking them to create composite models which are larger and more complex than origami produced with a single sheet of paper. The individual modules are folded separately and then assembled to form larger constructions - typically by inserting tabs into specially-created pockets. Friction and tension between the tabs and pockets hold the models together.
