I use a part of my house as workplace/exhibition space/studio for my
Origami and paper models.
Almost everything is my own design and created by myself.
I'm always working on new things / ideas, so the interior changes
continuesly. Fun!
ORIGAMI
FLOWERS I
still design new Origami flowers regularly, and always try to find a
nice spot for them to place:
These are some photos of relative older settings with my Origami
flowers:
I make most of my videos here:
The photo on the left is a background with a part of a
tennis court.
I used it for a video with me folding a tennis skirt.
And on the right I'm clearing stuff from a video with an Origami
lampshade.
WITCH HOUSE /
DOLLHOUSE I
made this large Witch House out of cardboard and purple
papers, the height is about one and a half meters. I
decorated it with Horror and Witches related models.
This Witches Well with infinity mirror effect
looks endless deep.
LIGHTHOUSE This
lighthouse is also made out of cardboard and normal papers,
the height is about 1,5 meters. A
flat showcase with Origami Ocean models is hanging next to it.
Later I made a beach lifeguard tower and placed it in
front of the lighthouse.
PALACE Under
the stairs I created a miniature dollhouse palace with furniture and
dolls in paper / Origami style. I
painted the stairs itself yellow and decorated it in palace style
with large columns and Origami flowers.
CASTLE This
castle is made out of large purple Origami bricks and I used
cardboard to make the structure stronger. I
added the right part of the castle later and it has an
entrance that looks endless long because of the infinity
mirror effect.
MEDIEVAL
CASTLE The
castle is made from a few hundred Origami bricks and the
roofs are placed on top of the towers using no glue or tape. Click
here for more info about the castle island The
dragon is folded out of a paper which is about 2x2 meters.
The witch is flying above the cemetery and she's wearing an
Origami witch hat.
THE KITCHEN Most
of my Origami food models end up at a nice spot in my kitchen:
This is a small dinner corner in 50's / 60's style:
Left is the cooking area and on the right I show my latest
cake model, a drip cake :)
MINIATURE CITY Sometimes I use the city as background for a video,
anything can happen: A traffic jam, bank robbery,
neighbours quarreling etc.
The setting keeps changing, because I regularly make new models
like cars, shops and skyscrapers.
ORIGAMI OCEAN
WORLD This
is a large carton box filled with small Origami underwater / ocean
models. I
used this as background for a short underwater adventure game. Click
here
to play the Underwater Adventure
I placed the ocean world themed box in a closet with
Pirates theme models.
ORIGAMI
FASHION I also enjoy designing Origami clothings
and other fashion related things, these are some
examples. Origami is very similar to making real
clothes, because making real fashion also uses
various folding techniques.
