Home›Signage & Decor›Paper Boat

A folded paper boat at 1,803 polygons, with the creases built as real edges. Origami is all crease: the sharp folds and the slight spring where the paper resists being flattened are the only things that separate a paper boat from a plastic toy, and they have to be geometry.

Two maps at 2048 x 2048 carry the paper stock. Non-overlapping UVs mean you can print anything onto the sheet the boat is folded from, which is where the newspaper version on the same page comes from.

Sold 88 times since 2018, into advertising and motion graphics, childhood and nostalgia themes, and conceptual work where a small fragile object has to carry a metaphor. Paper boats do a lot of symbolic work for a $19 asset.
