Wohoo! Love this
For the enjoyment of #ChemSky scrollers, an origami BCC unit cell. The origami has grown quite a bit since then, and continues to grow, but I wanted to share my project at this particular stage with chemists and crystallographers.
All origami project units are complete and construction has started!

Here is a BCC unit cell, or as I call it in origami form, the “Kilo Cube”. This origami crystal structure grows as we speak
