Although theGolden Ratiowas devised style , way back by ancient Greek mathematician , you might call up it from such modern execution as theApple logoand an former personification ofTwitter . But , candidly , it can be a total mind - fuck for non - designers to wrap their heads around .
Does the Apple Logo Really Adhere To the Golden proportion ?
Golden Meaningis a new Holy Writ by GraphicDesign & , a publishing business firm in London , that set a playful crook on the complex geometric relationship . Fifty - five folks in a variety show of originative athletic field were commission to do their own interpretations and the outcome includes beautiful renderings of Rice Krispie public square , Beatles motion-picture show , and case .
Are they beautiful ? Yes ! soft to interpret ? Not needfully ! In terms of actually help us to parse what the inspired proportions are all about , I think Mark Hudson ’s reworking of daily objective is the most accessible , but I love - sexual love Malika Favre ’s be - striped char — and they ’re all pretty wonderful . Do you find the golden proportion easy to understand than I do ? Which is your fave example ?
If you ’re ace - keen , you could pre - regulate a copy of the book for £ 15here . [ Creative Review ]
