Creating a Koch snowflake curve by the fold-and-cut method. The fold-and-cut theorem states that any shape with straight sides can be cut from a single (idealized) sheet of paper by folding it flat and making a single straight complete cut. [1]
Make paper snowflakes for the holidays! With our simple DIY tutorial, you will learn how to make two different types of snowflakes, both beginner friendly.
The Koch snowflake (also known as the Koch curve, Koch star, or Koch island [1] [2]) is a fractal curve and one of the earliest fractals to have been described. It is based on the Koch curve, which appeared in a 1904 paper titled "On a Continuous Curve Without Tangents, Constructible from Elementary Geometry" [3] by the Swedish mathematician Helge von Koch.
An example of various paper snowflake designs. A paper snowflake is a type of paper craft based on a snowflake that combines origami with papercutting. The designs can vary significantly after doing mandatory folding. [1] An online version of the craft is known as "Make-A-Flake", and was created by Barkley Inc. in 2008. [2]
One non-trivial example is the fractal dimension of a Koch snowflake. It has a topological dimension of 1, but it is by no means rectifiable: the length of the curve between any two points on the Koch snowflake is infinite. No small piece of it is line-like, but rather it is composed of an infinite number of segments joined at different angles.

Macro photography of a natural snowflake. A snowflake is a single ice crystal that is large enough to fall through the Earth's atmosphere as snow. [1] [2] [3] Snow appears white in color despite being made of clear ice. This is because the many small crystal facets of the snowflakes scatter the sunlight between them. [4]
