Letters from the Sky

For Iggesund Paperboard, I created a greeting card, which is also a foldable decoration. It can be used to create thousands of different snowflake images. In total, you can create 44716 different snowflakes. (If you are interested in the mathematics behind this project, you may download a PDF file with the exact calculations here.)
