Modular Classic Snowflake v1

Designed	May 2025
Crease Pattern	Yes
Diagrams	2025 PCOC Origami Collection

I've wanted to design a snowflake for a long time. There are surprisingly few color-changed, flat origami snowflakes with the classic look - 6 branches and 3 tips per branch. I don't like the amount of precreasing required for this model. I would like to design a version with simpler reference points in the future.

I designed and diagrammed this modular model for OrigamiUSA's 2025 PCOC to fit the convention book theme "Money Folds & Modulars".
