    The revolutionary globe that won the 2016 Japan GOOD DESIGN GRAND AWARD

    This AuthaGraph Globe is a paper craft globe kit showing the process making a 2D AuthaGraph world map. The package contains three different sets of paper parts for the globe of the sphere, the globe of the intermediate body, and the globe of the regular tetrahedron (AuthaGraph). By assembling these globes, you can understand how spherical earth changes to a 2D AuthaGraph world map in a three-dimensional transformation process.

    order was swift and smooth. i have not yet assembled the piece as it has a lot more pieces than i expected and looks intimidating to put together.

    I got two of them for my daughter from an ad in Mental Floss, a magazine. She took one to her social studies class and they're putting it together to learn about new perspectives.

    The authagraph world map is beautiful and I can't wait to frame and hang it. I purchased the authagraph globe as a gift and while I haven't opened it, it looks wonderful and I'm sure it will be well received. Products are great and I was amazed by how quickly I received them considering international shipment.

    I was worried, when I ordered it, that it wasn't the flat map AS WELL AS the globe-- but it is! You get both with this little paper craft. and it's really cool to be able to play around with the maps.
