So I decided to make one more.
Here it is.
This is the main building of the school we belong to.
I just made it quickly without measuring nor looking at the building photo. So the design of the building is not exactly same. But you see the feature appeared on the card, if you know the real building.
I love this kind of paper crafts.
This is called the "Origamic Architechture" that a Japanese Architect Masashiro Chatani invented. He created the cards of all kinds of famous buildings and world heritages all over the world. You can find his books that contain a loads of patterns for Origamic Architecture for you to make the architecture cards on your own. His books are often bilingual, English and Japanese. I think you would love to see his books!
Anyway, I stole his idea of making a card of existing building and made a familiar building that stands in front of my house as a symbol of our school.
When I make this again, I will make the card that is more closely designed to original building...

I love your pop-up cards. Fantastic!
You're so creative that you can make pop-ups for your children, I'm sure. I envy you having such a talent:)
Actually,I'm very interested in the "Origamic Architecture". I love origami, holding paper. I'm rather good at folloing examples!
I'd like to make Japanese castles:)
Thanks for your information!
Hello, Honesty,
thanks for you compliment. :D
I love making things, and also I love to give these hand-made cards. It is so nice to see frineds' smile when they find it in a little envelope. This kind of hand-made pop-up cards always please people.
I can not say nice greeting words, but these visual crafts made with love don't need words much. Art and love are universal...
Talk to you soon!
Beautiful!
And you didn't measure it?
If I tried to do that, it would be a collapsed building...ha ha.
Amazing.
This is the first time I heard the word 'Origamic Architecture' I only knew 'pop-up cards'. Feel a bit honoured that it's invented by a Japanese person:)
Hand made cards are always so nice...
Hello, Anima,
thanks.
It is not so difficult to make, actually.
I think most of Japanese people can manage to make this kind of cards, since Japanese are so good at precise work.
We can certainly be proud of him for inventing such a beautiful stuff. If you have a chance, please have a look at his books. His works are amazing.
Talk to you soon!
