Overall Impression

Fernando Gilgado is a master of the "Inside-out" technique, using the two sides of the paper to create a bi-colored model. This book collects some of his more complex designs of this kind. The models are all great, some are whimsical asnd fun, such as the "Mortgage" model, depicting a man trapped under the weight of his house! 

The production quality of the book is very high, with full-color clear diagrams throughout, and each model containing the crease-pattern and design-notes.

A truly fun book for complex-origami folders.
