Abstract

Based on the art of curved crease origami, we give an example of the construction of a family of shapes from mathematically ideal paper that consists of cylinders and cones and reassembles the structure of a spherical polyhedron with regular faces. We offer explicit formulas to parametrize the crease curves. Moreover, we illustrate this method on the five Platonic solids, which can be folded from one single sheet of paper.
