Human civilization has many interesting aspects and one of them is the development of art and culture. Arts and crafts have evolved over centuries to produce individual school of thoughts. Different cultures and societies have their individual art and craft. There have been instances of cultural synthesis that has been due to the intermingling of two different cultures. The main cultural distinctions can be made on the basis of the continental boundaries.

Accordingly, the arts and crafts of the continents also differ in the same way. Asian arts and crafts would be different from European arts and crafts.

If we are talking about Asian arts and crafts then for sure, we cannot forget Japanese Origami. This form of art has been popular for years and is distinctly related to the Japanese people. It is a simple form of paper craft, yet it has the beauty to charm many. Paper folds using the hands and making designs using the nails is the main trick of this trade. The unique designs are the result of unique weaves of paper interlocked with utmost perfection!

This Japanese art has spread to all parts of the world and there are online tutorials available to teach people the techniques of origami. It has also been commercialized largely, which implies that it is also being used for business purposes. 3D animation and other 3D designs have been created using various touches of origami.

3d analysis of various origami styles have been made in order to understand the real techniques behind origami. The special type of paper that is used in origami is known as washi. This is a rare form of paper only found in the country of Japan. Japanese people have mastered this art for centuries and have also managed to spread it across many countries.
