How to Fold Office Chairs (Translation)

There is currently no specific folding method for real office chairs, but you can refer to the following methods for folding small paper chairs to create items with a similar chair shape:

Method One

1. Prepare the paper: Select a square piece of paper measuring 15 by 15 centimeters. This is the basic material for making a small folded paper chair, and the appropriate size ensures the smooth progress of subsequent folding steps.
2. Initial folding: Fold the paper horizontally once, align it neatly, and then open it. This step is to determine the midline position of the paper. Then, continue folding along the midline and fold the other side in the same way. Through multiple folds, a basic framework is built for subsequent folding operations.
3. Fold into thirds: At the 2/3 position of the paper, fold the paper into three equal parts. After folding out the creases, fold it tightly. Continue folding once along the 1/4 position, and then fold it back up. Do the same folding operation on the other side. This will create many creases on the paper, which are key guiding lines for shaping the chair later.
4. Shape the main body of the chair: Fold upwards along the creases of the three equal parts. Fold the edges into small triangles along the creases and press them tightly. This step makes the edges of the chair more regular. Fold the middle strip part over to initially form the prototypes of the seat and backrest of the chair.
5. Complete the shape of the chair: Turn the paper over and fold out small triangles in the same way. Continue folding the middle strip part, fold the excess parts of the edges and the top position downwards once, and finally trim the edges to make the entire small folded paper chair more beautiful and complete.

Method Two

1. Fold the paper: Prepare a square piece of paper and fold it upwards vertically. This step determines the vertical midline of the paper. Fold both the top and bottom edges to the centerline to form a long strip of paper. Then, unfold one side to prepare for subsequent folding operations.
2. Complex folding: Fold the bottom right corner to the crease on the left. This step requires precise operation. You can refer to relevant detailed tutorials for further operation. Through this series of folds, the shape of the chair is gradually formed.

Other Methods

Prepare one-twentieth of an A4 sheet of paper. First, fold the paper along the diagonal edge, press it tightly, and then use scissors to cut off the excess parts. Then, open the paper and fold it in the other direction. Fold it to the other side once, and then fold it in the other direction once more to form creases in the shape of a rice grain. There are a series of subsequent folding steps. Since the description is relatively complex and some information is unclear, you can refer to the original text for further operation.
