Mike,

The orbifold doesn't reduce dimension, rather it changes the geometry within the same dimension. The line segment and the circle you started with are both one dimensional.

(I don't want to state this too firmly though. there are a lot of things about orbifolds that I don't know.)

Regards,
Dick
