Playing around with color changes has always been a lot of fun to me, because I like the idea of seeing the other side of the paper. Today I was just fooling around with
dragon curves when I picked up a small square (did I mention that I have a little notepad with (formerly) about 1000 5cm squares? Very handy for testing small things on the spot.) and started folding, just to see what kind of things that I could come up with. At first, I couldn't think of much. I decided to fold the bottom corner up to the middle of the top edge, and then base the rest on 90° folds. Eventually, I ended up with this (3 folds, despite there being 4 actual creases):

Of course, you can interpret it any way that you want to. If you fold with the colors inversed and use a background other than white, you could have a balding man with a moustache.
EDIT: Three and a half years later, I keep seeing this design as a balding man with a moustache. As a result, I decided to fold it with the appropriate colours:
