When German artist Peter Dahmen <\/a>was a design student, he couldn\u2019t figure out a safe way to transport his 3D projects to class on his daily train commute. Instead of hauling oversized and incredibly intricate structures across town, he decided to create pop-up paper sculptures that could easily fold into a flat portfolio.<\/p>\n
