What Is The Golden Ratio?
The Golden Ratio is a mathematical ratio. It is commonly found in nature, and it can also be used to achieve beauty, balance and harmony in art, design ( such as: architecture, logos, UI Design…) and photography. It is a special number found by dividing a line into two parts so that the longer part divided by the smaller part is also equal to the whole length divided by the longer part.
A Fibonacci sequence starting with 0 and 1. The previous two numbers are added together to produce the next number in the sequence: 0,1,1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, … and so on to infinity.
