Tri.Ami is a triangle shaped origami that is a container. It is constructed of 6 pieces of identically folded paper that are joined together to form a lidded box. This is my favourite origami box to produce in paper. The path running across the surface is a combination of relief shapes that are fabric covered, the flat origami made to appear 3D and paper origami boxes.
