Here is a book that introduces an innovative and practical craft art that utilises origami techniques -specifically the 'hira-ori' style- to create folded cloth patterns based on classic geometric designs. These patterns have been influenced by architecture and by the traditional decorative motifs of many cultures, and are possessed of a layered complexity resulting from interraction with light. They further change in appearance when back-lit (for example when used as lamp-shades, or as dividing screens). The approach is an easy-to-follow, step-by-step one that is highly illustrated with sequential patterns and photos - more than 250 in total, all in colour. This is a book that will have a wide appeal to anyone who enjoys working with textile and fabric, as well as origami. A total of 15 different projects are explained, including pillow designs, lamp-shades, neckties, bedspreads, table-cloths and divider screens.

Chris K. Palmer is a professional artist who has been designing and folding origami since childhood. He has been inspired by the mosaic tilings of the Alhambra in Granada, and his persistent efforts and study of the Japanese 'hira-ori' technique led him to make the leap from from paper-folding to Shadowfolds.
