Geometric Models on Instagram: “Fibonacci numbers appear in nature often enough to prove that they reflect some naturally occurring patterns. You can commonly spot these…”

There is a concrete, mathematical approach that can help us get one step closer to creating amazing design experiences every time: the Golden Ratio.

The golden ratio is a mathematical proportion in nature, art, architecture, and design. It's a shortcut to proportions we seem to find innately pleasing. What…

Nature is amazingly mathematical. You can see the Fibonacci Spiral in ferns, sea shells, flower centers, pine cones and even our finger bone lengths follow the Fibonacci Sequence. The fern tip in the photo is opening up, but the spiral is still clearly seen. An approximation of the Fibonacci Spiral is used in photography composition. Commonly known as The Rule of Thirds, it aids in positioning the elements of a photo in a pleasing fashion. I use it all the time. Google Fibonacci... it's one…
