Origami Sphere

There was a free class on origami in the center of the Chicago building on my last three posts. This was one of the items on display. It was a sphere made of colorful paper and was about four feet* in diameter.
I'm going down to Palm Beach for the weekend so will try to take some pictures of or on the beach. I will try to post while I'm gone but don't know if I'll have internet access. The friends I'm staying with are computer phobic.

*That's 48 inches or 122 cm

This is a view of the center of the building whose bottom floor and ceiling I've posted the past two days. Odd to see that these are all in the same building. Thanks to David Mitchell for telling me that it's the James R. Thompson Center. It's a fantastic building.

Yesterday's post was the ground floor looking from the street level. This is the view looking up. Tomorrow I'll post one of the side walls. It's still raining here so I haven't been out to take any new local photos so I'll just post Chicago for a day or two more.
Thanks to David Mitchell for giving me the name of the building. It's the James R. Thompson Center in Downtown Chicago.
