Prototypes - Orihon

Description

Copy paste from wiki:

Orihon (OR-ee-hon, 折本) is a book consisting of a long strip of paper that is written on one side and then compacted by folding in zig-zag fashion. The orihon format is considered a step between a scroll and a codex.
The style of folding is similar to that of the air bellow of a concertina or accordion, such that every written page faces another written page when the book is closed. It may therefore be opened to any page.
The word is borrowed from Japanese and combines the roots "ori" (fold) and "hon" (book). Orihon folding is typically associated with Japanese Buddhist works.

I'm thinking of making a ton of these and selling them on my etsy. Not so sure yet, but they are fun to have and play with. XD I'm thinking of making a small comic on the book in the back.

Do you guys want to see these in the shop? I'll be experimenting with different shapes when I have the time, too. :3


Stick around for three very special Kingly Kollection members that I worked on today for my friend's contest. :3
