In this video you'll learn how to make a modular origami Icosahedron. An Icosahedron is a regular polyhedron with 20 faces, all equilateral triangles. My unit for this model is also made from a triangle, so the first steps in this video shows how to get the proper shape from a standard square sheet of paper.
You can write or print numbers to make a D20 dice. You can also use the same units to build other platonic solids (Tetrahedron and Octahedron) and as triangular pixels.
