Learn about the origins of the Fibonacci sequence, its relationship with the golden ratio and common misconceptions about its significance in nature and architecture.

In our last post, we introduced you to our ongoing L/E Journal series on the Elements and Principles of Design by discussing balance and harmony. For the second chapter, we’re focusing on scale and proportion. Just as the last post, we’ll begin with definitions to understand scale and balance in a design context. scale (n) […]

Ancient Greeks believed that there is a close association in mathematics between beauty and truth. According to them there are three "ingredients" to beauty: symmetry, proportion, and harmony. What if we applied the recipe to our Human Existence?

Sacred geometric shapes and symbols all use mathematical patterns and ratios that are deeply ingrained in our DNA and human subconscious. The golden ratio and the Fibonacci sequence are prime examples of mathematical formulas represented in all sacred geometry. These formulas come from the universal laws of mathematics and physics that dictate the creation of the planets, galaxies, and the universe. Sacred geometry is present from the ‘micro level’ of molecular structures, to the ‘macro…
