Introduction
This book is the first to explain
basic pop-up techniques
comprehensively, and to show
how they have been used
creatively by professional paper
engineers, amateurs and students.
It attempts to show that, although
in the hands of a master a pop-up
can be a remarkably sophisticated
construction, the techniques
themselves are delightfully simple

and can be used creatively by

anyone. The only requirements are
a few easily learned hand skills
and a little imagination - but
then, that is no more than any art
or craft requires.
Defining exactly what is, or is
not, a pop-up is an awkward and
perhaps pedantic exercise, but an
important one. For the purposes
of this book, a pop-up is a self-

erecting, three-dimensional
structure, formed by the action of
opening a crease. This definition
does not include rotating disks,
lift-up flaps, pull tabs and other
two-dimensional paper-engineered
devices commonly, if mistakenly,
described as pop-ups.
Whatever their exact definition,
pop-ups are wonderful magical
structures that confound our
