Collapsible Origami??

Hi all,

I was looking up where in real life origami is used. I came up with crumple zones in cars and space things. I suddenly got the urge to fold something. I was thinking of those models where you press them and they fold away flat, then if you push the sides (or something else) it retains the original form (i think their called collapsible?). Something like Fujimoto's boxes i guess...(but something other than boxes)

Does any one have models to suggest? I really like those models! :D

Thanks in advance!
