The golden ratio is the never ending and never repeating number 1.6180339887……
Any object which uses the proportions of the golden ratio is said to be aesthetically pleasing. Indeed, some would argue that we can go so far as to objectively define beauty as that which can be described with the golden ratio.
We commonly see the golden ratio being expressed in art, music, architecture and nature. For example, the length of Mona Lisa’s face divided by the width is approximately 1.618. Even the length of the canvas divided by the width is 1.618. If we analyse Nefertiti’s or Angelina Jolie’s faces we see proportions such as distance between eyes and width of mouth which are consistent with the golden ratio (see http://www.beautyanalysis.com for an interesting take on this). The works of Mondrian are fabulous expressions of the golden ratio. Le Corbussier explicitly used the golden ratio in his Modulor system for the scale of architectural proportion. The golden ratio is also evident in the spirals of a nautilus shell, the head of a sunflower, the scales on pine cones and the arrangement of leaves around the stem of many plants.
