Masahiro Chatani
Masahiro Chatani is the creator of the art called 'Origamic Architecture'
Often seen in children's books, where a person or a house would pop up out of the book, I didn't realise until now how complex the designs could be using the 'pop-up' technique.

Origamic architecture is all about planning, knowing where to fold, where to slice and cut, it can become extremely fragile and again, one little tear and it can ruin the whole popping up process.

After experimenting myself with pop-up art, It came quite clear that it's so confusing! Trying to work out which bit is going to pop up, and where to fold it can be a brain teaser. When browsing through both complicated and simple versions of pop-up, I liked the illusion that stairs gave when they were popped up.
