Real estate boom... I ended up building this house
Real estate in Chennai is moving towards its peek. People say that this is because of IT boom. I do not agree completely, as the population keeps increasing and the available land space keeps reducing. Getting a new appartment in the city has become unimaginable even for upper class.
I planned to buy a house to avoid income tax; But now I think I will opt to pay the tax instead of paying huge EMIs every month.
I have learnt to build this paper hut in remembrance of my house hunting.
You'd need:
A daily calendar
Step 1: Tear all the sheets off the card board. Do not tear each sheet, but take it out as a bunch.
Step 2: Remove the two thick sheets (first and the last sheets of the calendar)
Step 3: There are two simple folding methods.
Pattern 1:
Pattern 2:
a) Same as a) of pattern 1.
b) Fold the bottom on to the triangle made to form a trapezoid.
Step 4: Do these patterns on alternate sheets of the calendar. Don't forget to make the folds sharp.
Step5: When you are done with all the 365 sheets, you will get a beautiful paper hut.
