post Hexaflexago: the friendly hexaflexagon template generator hexaflexago 2017-05-25 12:05:00 projects

I was originally turned on to hexaflexagons while watching a video by vihart. Ive since become a tad obsessed. My partner, Jane Meredith, and I created Hexaflexago, a hexaflexagon template generator.

Whats Next?

There are some improvements Id like to make to Hexaflexago eventually.

  • enable users to crop added images (currently Hexaflexago letterboxes images that are not regular hexagons)
  • add documentation on how to fold the hexaflexagon template
  • support adding six images to make hexahexaflexagons

Im also currently working with Littoral Press to make hexaflexagon business cards. Heres a prototype:
