Crease pattern

Crease pattern

A Crease Pattern is an origami diagram type that consists of all or most of the creases in the final model, rendered into one image. This comes in handy for diagramming complex and super-complex models, where the model is often not simple enough to diagram efficiently.

The use of crease patterns originated with designers such as Neal Elias, who used them to record how their models were made. This allowed the more prolific designers to keep track of all their models, and soon crease patterns began to be used as communication of ideas between designers. After a few years of this sort of use, designers such as Robert J. Lang, Meguro Toshiyuki, Jun Maekawa and Peter Engel began to design using crease patterns; This allowed them to create with increasing levels of complexity, allowing the art of origami to reach unprecedented levels of realism. Now most higher-level models are accompanied by crease patterns.
