The Golden Ratio in CSS
Designers, have you ever imagined your layouts to be as endless as an old building or as visually appealing as a seashell spiral? The answer might be found in the golden ratio!
This mythical number, which can be found everywhere from the Great Pyramids to your laptop’s browser, might become your new CSS best buddy.
Ready to design some naturally amazing; visually balanced layouts? Let’s go into the wonder of the Golden Ratio, with all its humor and practical uses.
What is the Golden Ratio?
Mathematicians, artists, and designers have been obsessed with 1.618 since ancient times.
Why? The Golden Ratio (φ) has been recognized for generating natural harmony in classical art, seashells, sunflowers, and now on web design.
It’s like the universe’s design tool, a constant recipe for visual harmony.
The Golden Ratio is not just a number; it is a philosophy. Greek architects used it to build the Parthenon, Renaissance artists used it to achieve perfect proportions, and even Leonardo da Vinci fell in love with it.
So, as web designers, why wouldn’t we have this outdated design trick in our CSS?
