Wong is an artist based in Perth Australia, who specializes in paper art. He uses colorful Bristol board to create tiny sculptures. More traditional paper art sticks to one technique to create intricate paper sculptures – Origami artist, for example, never cut or glue their paper, only fold it. Wong, on the other hand, uses whatever technique he finds useful for his sculptures.

Wong’s art focuses on nature. He creates schools of fish, potted plants, tiny hedgehogs – and they’re all surprisingly realistic! The only thing that discloses the fact that these are statues and not actual animals or plants is the fact that they’re tiny. You’ll notice that most of Wong’s creations on Instagram are shot when they’re held in the palm of his hand or balance on the tip of his finger – which only makes the art even more impressive, as he has to get all those little details right on a tiny scale!

There are very few rules to origami, but they’re hard to follow as they are strict: you can only fold the paper. Cutting it or using glue is frowned upon. Need to make a hole in the middle of your sheet of paper? you’ll have to fold your way to that hole. Need to connect one piece of paper with another? Fine, make the right fold to keep those to pieces together.

 It’s not an easy art, and it takes time to learn how to manipulate the paper properly. Luckily, we don’t have to but books or go to classes – we have the internet! Jo Nakashima’s YouTube channel is dedicated to Origami video tutorials that will help even a total newbie to get the hang of things. And if even if you don’t want to do it yourself – watching the videos and seeing how regulars pieces of paper magically turn into your favorite animal or a beautiful flower is just as fun!

He talks about the names of different shapes and folds and how you can use it to your advantage whether you’re following the instructions to make figures or are designing your own. Watch the video and try it yourself!

It’s usually easier when you do it with larger pieces of paper, but as you develop your skills you might find it interesting to try making stuff with really small pieces too.

Her Instagram account has over 20k followers and her decorations look so cute and easy to make that they could easily fit in any home.

She also makes gentle flowers in very tiny jars or fish on small sticks with decoration made of oysters.

The Keifer Technic Showroom is located in Bad Gleichinberg, Austria. It was designed by Ernst Giselbrecht. The building changes its structure according to the weather as well as sunshine. It is technically a building with a glass exterior and an extra shading that covers the building to protect occupants against the harsh sun rays. This means that it also provides a beautiful view when it rains.

Its facade has 112 aluminum tiles with 56 motors that move them from place to place. The process of changing the facade takes on a few seconds. Watching it unfold is like creating an origami. It is satisfying to watch.

You can view the video below. Would you live in such a house?
