Okay, all I want to know is... HOW?!

No, seriously. Give me a step-by-step on something simple, I can extrapolate from there. Because, frankly, right now I look at that and drool and thing

it's a combination of "Origamic Architecture" and Papercraft. The former has frustrated me numerous times when looking for origami books or
websites.

As a card (and paper) carrying origami master, it is not as difficult as it appears. One you can get your mind around working what is essentially a two
dimensional plane in three dimensions, it becomes easy. The core canon of origami is easy; mixed with kiri-gami, you can produce some staggering work - such
as this. One of the issues is that bookstores tend to stock some of the worst books on the subject. Or some excellent books that are so difficult that the
neophyte is quickly overwhelmed.

Awesome stuff.
