Woven Fourteenth Stellation of the Icosahedron designed by Daniel Kwan
Some years ago I went to an origami convention, and I thought I’d bring something big and flashy. So I found this design by Daniel Kwan, decided an appropriate coloring, and the size of the final model surprised me.
No I don’t really know what the “14th Stellation of the Icosahedron is”, I just take Daniel Kwan’s word for it that that’s what it is. I do know that to “stellate” a polyhedron means to extend the planes of each face outwards, beyond their usual shapes. Wikipedia has a list of 59 ways to stellate an icosahedron, and this one seems to be arbitrarily designated the 14th stellation.
