Koi carp origami papercraft

The calm of a Japanese pond, the gentle ripple of water, then the elegant silhouette of a koi carp gliding by. This 3D papercraft lets you recreate that soothing scene at home, one sheet at a time. You assemble two Taisho koi carps, recognizable by their white bodies accented with red and black patterns, for a decoration that is both graphic and deeply zen.

Each model is built step by step, almost like a ritual. You fold, adjust, and watch the shape come to life. Hung, displayed on a surface, or integrated into a mobile, these koi naturally draw the eye without ever overwhelming the space. An ideal piece for fans of 3D origami and paper marine life creations, also featured in the origami sea animals papercraft 3D collection.

Technical details and composition

The kit allows you to build two distinct koi carps, each measuring around 400 mm in length with a diameter between 90 and 100 mm. The full project is made up of 10 pages, divided across the different colors required for each fish.

Koi carp 1 : white base with red and black markings – dedicated pages for fins, body, and tail.
Koi carp 2 : same structure, with a slightly different color distribution to create a harmonious duo.

The pieces are assembled progressively to form a smooth, balanced volume. The project requires precision but is extremely rewarding once completed. A true moment of focus, followed by a guaranteed wow effect.
