The Origami Open Sink is a folding technique that allows you to create a pocket or indentation within your origami model.
This technique is particularly useful for adding depth and dimension to your creations, as well as for connecting different parts of a model.
To perform an open sink, start by folding a flap of paper along a pre-existing crease line, creating a valley fold. Next, gently open the flap and press the paper inward along the crease, forming a new pocket or indentation.
Carefully flatten the paper, ensuring that the edges align properly, and you have successfully completed an open sink.
This fold can be applied to a wide range of origami projects, from simple animals to more complex modular designs.
As with any origami technique, practice and patience are essential for mastering the open sink and incorporating it into your paper-folding repertoire.

My Paper and Size: 10x10

00:00 To have this part of folding origami, see steps 1-7 of the video tagged above
00:06 Step 1) For this example start off with a Square Base. The instructions for this base are later in this guide. Fold the top part of the model down along the dotted line. This is just practice so don’t worry about making your fold in exactly the same place as the diagram.
00:13 Step 2) Crease this fold very well and then unfold it.
00:15 Step 3) Turn the model over.
00:16 Step 4) Fold the top part of the model down along the dotted line. This will be along the crease you already made. Now you’re folding it the opposite direction.
00:24 Step 5) Crease this fold very well and then unfold it.
00:25 Step 6) The easiest way to make the Open Sink in this example is to open the paper up completely.
00:26 Step 7) Push the paper inside the model following the square of creases that you made.
00:36 Step 8) As you push the paper inside start to close the model back up folding along the creases that make the Square Base.
00:42 Step 9) Continue sinking the paper inside the model following the existing creases and continue to close the model back into the Square Base.
00:51 Step 10) Your paper should look something like this. Fold everything completely flat.
00:59 The completed Open Sink. The dotted line shows the path of the paper inside the model. Instead of sticking out like it was before the triangle at the top is now sunk inside the model.
