Construction

The Golden Section was already known in Pythagoras’ times. It is UNIQUE in that no other constructed figure has its qualities.

Construction: from the middle of the side of a square draw diagonal AB to the opposite corner, from their draw an arc that defines the length of a rectangle CF which has the dimensions of a Golden Section. Then construct the square HG which is part of the Golden Section HF. Now we have the analogous proportions CE : EF = EF : BF. These proportions can be repeated, as larger or smaller rectangles into INFINITY.

Symbolic Values

So, here, infinity and Uniqueness are combined and endow the Golden Section with its SACRED status.

Example of the Unity of Construction

The above composition of 12 Golden Section rectangles has been constructed on the basis that the length of the smaller figure always defines the width of the larger one.

PRINCIPLES: UNIQUE, INFINITE, SACRED.
