Flat rectangular models with color change?

Hi, I'm looking for origami flat rectangular models with color change that are openly taught through the web. I mean models like Escape Sign by Morisue Kei and I know there's a crab model with those same characteristics, but I don't know who created it or what is its name. Hadi Tahir teaches how to fold a couple of models like that in Neorigami, but I'm looking for other models. What's important is that the final model ends up being rectangular, including a square. Flags have those characteristics but I wish to avoid that theme. I'd prefer a geometric model instead of a figurative one but you can tell me about them both.

Does that type of origami have a name? Is there a list of models of that type somewhere on the web?

Thank you guys.

The only model I can think of other than Escape that fits this description would be "The Rising Sun" by Djorigami. (It's in the new Tanteidan convention 21 Book)

The crab model you mentioned is by Nguyen Hung Cuong. I'm not sure of its name though.

I recently found another model while scrolling through Gilad's website not sure if it will fit the category you are looking for. (It's folded from a rectangle instead of a square) it's called "The waves off the coast of Kanagawa" (Its in the Tanteidan convention book 10) Hope this helps. :)
