Muneji Fuchimoto

Muneji Fuchimoto is a renowned Japanese origami artist and graphic designer based in Nagasaki, Japan. Since he began designing original models in 2005, he has developed a distinctive style known as “Modern Origami.” Unlike traditional organic forms, his work is characterized by clean lines, geometric structures, and a stylized aesthetic that reflects his background in graphic design.

He is the author of several popular books, including the acclaimed “Modern Origami,” as well as titles focusing on specific themes like “Origami Pet Park” and “Robot Origami.” His designs cover a wide range of subjects, from lifelike animals to complex mechanical figures and vehicles, all created from a single square sheet of paper without cutting or gluing.

Fuchimoto is celebrated for making complex folding sequences accessible through clear and logical diagrams. He continues to influence the global origami community by blending the precision of modern design with the traditional art of paper folding, proving that origami can be both playful and sophisticated.
