Since there is no complicated cutting or painting required, the origami models are simple enough to be considered origami-for-kids projects and are a great way for those with no previous paper folding experience to learn origami. Origami Architecture Kit contains 20 sheets of high-quality, pre-cut card stock pieces which gives you all the materials to get you started with assembling the scale models. The facade designs are based on the real architecture of the buildings.
