Even though the online tutorials will be in either Spanish or Italian, the videos alone are worth "attending" this workshop with Dario. He is located in Barcelona, Spain so the online tutorials will be 9 hours ahead for PT, 8 hours ahead for (MT), 7 hours ahead for CT and 6 hours ahead for ET. Please use this website or a time and date app to see what time it will be where you live.

It takes us into the basic fundamentals of folding structures through one of the best known and most used folds, the V-fold. This type of fold very clearly reflects the fundamental principles of folding, which is applied to paper, but also allows us to export its behavior to other materials, such as fabrics, plastics, metal, etc.

The course starts from basic and transversal knowledge of any bending process and then delves into the geometry and construction of V-folds, specifically in one of them.

It includes:

• 8 videos with 10 exercises and diagrams
• A Teaching Guide (PDF)
• One and a half hour long online tutoring

Work methodology

The workshops are structured in two phases:

1st.- Individual preparation:

Composed of video classes that describe step by step each of the exercises to be carried out and that will guide the learning process. These exercises aim to develop manual material management skills in the creation of folds and to understand how the process of transforming the sheet from its two-dimensional to three-dimensional state works.

The videos will be accompanied by a document (PDF) proposed exercises that must be done before participating in the online Tutoring. This phase will begin once the participant has registered for the course. A minimum of 7 days is recommended for this preparation stage.

2nd.- Online tutoring:

An online tutoring session lasting an hour and a half on the Meet platform in small groups of five people. This tutorial is intended to follow "closely" the work developed during the preparation phase, clarify doubts, give advice and deepen in some aspects. The lesson will end with a short presentation on the use of folding structures
