Abstract
In a first embodiment, a collapsible faceted object includes a number of interconnected rigid facet panels. The facet panels are arranged so that the object can be in either a flat state or an expanded state. In the flat state, the facet panels are substantially parallel to one another and the object has a first thickness in a direction perpendicular to the parallel facet panels. In the expanded state, the object has a visually continuous outer surface that forms a closed three-dimensional shape and a second thickness in the direction perpendicular. The second thickness is substantially larger than the first thickness. The object is capable of remaining in both the flat state and the expanded state without application of an external force.
