Japanese Origami craft is very beautiful, and the term “Origami” is translated into Origami in English. There have been many Origami creators appearing from Japan, however their craft work is not created on the basis of geometry but born from imagination they possess. As a result, only honeycomb is developed by British referring to star festival decoration of Japan. This situation is shameful for Japanese engineers. In this paper, many Origami crafts based on geometry are introduced. Taking these crafts into consideration, two facts are to be verified. One is that dire-core based on space filling geometry surpasses in some features than honeycomb, and the other is that judging from the fact plants grow up spirally, reverse spiral structure which has the same structure as them is superior as energy absorption member.
