The golden ratio is like a special way to divide things, it’s when one part is about 1.6 times bigger than the other, and it looks really pleasing to the eye. You can see this in shapes that feel balanced or natural, like flowers and sunflowers.
Examples
- A sunflower’s petals are arranged in a pattern that follows the golden ratio
- A shell spiral grows according to the golden ratio
