Perfect for those that enjoy origami, each project features a short history of each house, step–by–step instructions and a template that you remove from the book. You follow the lines on the template, cutting and folding to make your own model. All you need is a scalpel, a cutting mat and a ruler. Clear cutting tips help you with the tricky stages, while photos of the finished model show you the final design. To make things easier, the most intricate parts of the templates have been pre–cut. Simply display your finished model and admire your handiwork. Frank Lloyd Wright Paper Models is a must for Wright fans and architectural model enthusiasts.
