Pureland origami

Pureland origami is a style of origami invented by the British paper folder John Smith that is limited to using only mountain and valley folds, folded one at a time. The aim of Pureland origami is to make origami easier for inexperienced folders and those who have impaired motor skills.^[1] Impaired motor skills meant that many, but not all, of the more complicated processes that are common in regular origami, were impossible; and so this alternative manipulations have been developed to create similar effects.
