After making several folding architectural models, I have developed the final conceptual model. This model's fundamental design principle is continuity, based on the origami architectural principle. I have imagined what if floors become benches, the benches become walls, and walls become roofs... I found an architectural proposition in the garbage truck, which is folding principles. I created various types of conceptual models to understand how they create space and how they consist of each other for construction. By analysing the architectural proposition and doing some tests, I decided to explore Origami Architecture. Origami, derived from "ori", meaning folding, and "gami", meaning paper, is a traditional Japanese art of paper folding. This concept has spread across continents over time, shaping its evolution, practice, techniques, and use. As an Origami conceptual model, I can develop an overall architectural design strategy...
