商品描述
The magnum opus of one of the world's leading origami artists, the second edition of Origami Design Secrets reveals the underlying concepts of origami and how to create original origami designs. Containing step-by-step instructions for 26 models, this book is not just an origami cookbook or list of instructions--it introduces the fundamental building blocks of origami, building up to advanced methods such as the combination of uniaxial bases, the circle/river method, and tree theory. With corrections and improved illustrations, this new expanded edition also covers uniaxial box pleating, introduces the new design technique of hex pleating, and describes methods of generalizing polygon packing to arbitrary angles.
With coverage spanning the foundations of origami construction and advanced methods using both paper and pencil and custom-built free software, Origami Design Secrets helps readers cultivate the intuition and skills necessary to develop their own designs. It takes them beyond merely following a recipe to crafting a work of art.

《摺紙設計祕訣》的第二版是世界頂尖摺紙藝術家之一的代表作，揭示了摺紙的基本概念以及如何創造原創的摺紙設計。本書包含26個模型的逐步指導，不僅僅是一本摺紙食譜或指令清單——它介紹了摺紙的基本構建塊，並逐步深入到高級方法，如單軸基底的組合、圓形/河流方法和樹理論。這個新擴充版還修正了錯誤並改進了插圖，涵蓋了單軸盒摺技術，介紹了新的設計技術六角摺，並描述了將多邊形打包推廣到任意角度的方法。
《摺紙設計祕訣》涵蓋了摺紙構造的基礎和使用紙張與鉛筆以及自訂免費軟體的高級方法，幫助讀者培養發展自己設計所需的直覺和技能。它引導讀者超越僅僅遵循食譜，進而創作出藝術作品。
作者簡介
Robert J. Lang has been an avid student of origami for over forty years and is now recognized as one of the world's leading masters of the art. He is noted for designs of great detail and realism, and his repertoire includes some of the most complex origami designs ever created. His work combines aspects of the Western school of mathematical origami design with the Eastern emphasis upon line and form to yield models that are at once distinctive, elegant, and challenging to fold. They have been shown in exhibitions in New York (Museum of Modern Art), Paris (Carrousel du Louvre), Salem (Peabody Essex Museum), San Diego (Mingei Museum of World Folk Art), and Kaga, Japan (Nippon Museum of Origami), among others.
In 1992 Dr. Lang became the first Westerner ever invited to address the Nippon Origami Association's annual meeting; he has since been an invited guest at international origami conventions around the world. He lectures widely on origami and its connections to mathematics, science, and technology and teaches workshops on both artistic techniques and applications of folding in industrial design.
Dr. Lang is one of the pioneers of the cross-disciplinary marriage of origami with mathematics; he has been one of the few Western columnists for Origami Tanteidan Magazine, the journal of the Japan Origami Academic Society, and has presented several refereed technical papers on origami-math at mathematical and computer science professional meetings. He has consulted on applications of origami to engineering problems ranging from air-bag design to expandable space telescopes. He is the author or co-author of twelve books and numerous articles on origami art and design.
Dr. Lang was born in Ohio and raised in Atlanta, Georgia. Along the way to his current career as a full-time origami artist and consultant, he worked as a physicist, engineer, and R&D manager, during which time he authored or co-authored over 80 technical publications and 50 patents on semiconductor lasers, optics, and integrated optoelectronics. He is a Fellow of the Optical Society of America, a member of the IEEE Photonics Society, and served as Editor-in-Chief of the IEEE Journal of Quantum Electronics from 2007-2010. In 2009, he received the highest honor of Caltech, the Distinguished Alumni Award. Dr. Lang resides in Alamo, California.
作者簡介(中文翻譯)
羅伯特·J·朗（Robert J. Lang） 是一位對摺紙充滿熱情的學者，已有超過四十年的學習經歷，現在被認為是世界上最頂尖的摺紙藝術大師之一。他以設計細緻且具現實感的作品而聞名，其作品包括一些最複雜的摺紙設計。他的作品結合了西方數學摺紙設計學派的元素與東方對線條和形狀的重視，創造出既獨特又優雅且具有挑戰性的模型。這些作品曾在紐約（現代藝術博物館）、巴黎（盧浮宮旋轉木馬）、塞勒姆（皮博迪艾塞克斯博物館）、聖地牙哥（世界民俗藝術博物館）以及日本加賀（日本摺紙博物館）等地的展覽中展出。
1992年，朗博士成為首位受邀在日本摺紙協會年會上發言的西方人；此後，他成為世界各地國際摺紙大會的受邀嘉賓。他廣泛講授摺紙及其與數學、科學和技術的聯繫，並教授藝術技術和摺紙在工業設計中應用的工作坊。
朗博士是摺紙與數學跨學科結合的先驅之一；他曾是《摺紙探險家雜誌》（Origami Tanteidan Magazine）的少數西方專欄作家之一，該雜誌是日本摺紙學會的期刊，並在數學和計算機科學專業會議上發表了幾篇經過審核的技術論文，探討摺紙與數學的關係。他曾就摺紙在工程問題上的應用提供諮詢，範圍從氣囊設計到可擴展的太空望遠鏡。他是十二本書籍和多篇有關摺紙藝術與設計的文章的作者或合著者。
朗博士出生於俄亥俄州，在喬治亞州亞特蘭大長大。在成為全職摺紙藝術家和顧問的過程中，他曾擔任物理學家、工程師和研發經理，期間撰寫或共同撰寫了超過80篇技術出版物和50項半導體激光器、光學和集成光電子學的專利。他是美國光學學會的會士，IEEE光子學會的成員，並於2007年至2010年擔任IEEE量子電子學期刊的主編。2009年，他獲得加州理工學院的最高榮譽——傑出校友獎。朗博士目前居住在加利福尼亞州阿拉莫。
