    The original height of the Great Pyramid at Giza was 5778" which corresponds with the 5778K temperature of the Sun. It's face to base ratio corresponds with the Golden Ratio. The Golden Ratio raised to the +18th POWER is approximately 5778. And if you add it's opposite (the Golden Ratio raised to the -18th POWER) you'll get the number exact. Nice design........

    *The Golden Ratio 1.618*
    1 bad deeds : 10 good deeds
    >>> 1.618 : 16.18
    Quran 16:18 And if you should *count* the favors of Allah , you *could not enumerate* them. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.
    φ = the quantity (A) plus (B) divided by (A)
    >>> 16+18/16 = 2.125
    Quran 2:125 And [mention] when We made the House [i.e., the Kaʿbah] a place of return for the people and [a place of] security. And take, [O believers], from the standing place of Abraham a place of prayer. And We charged Abraham and Ishmael, [saying], "Purify My House for those who perform ṭawāf1 and those who are staying [there] for worship and those who bow and prostrate [in prayer]."

    The first rule is that you should not use the golden ratio for anything. It's an excellent way to create very boring things to look at. We are not machines and we are not programmed. It's nice to know what the golden ratio is and that's all there is to it. All kinds of art, including design, are dynamic things where a personal touch is very important, it makes us special and different from others. Strict application of various rules would prevent the evolution of design or art, and we would be stuck in a great depression of repetitive crap. So do it the way you feel.

    As a graphic artist who went to art school, we didn’t spent too much time with the Golden Ratio. We used other means like hierarchy, detail, focus and color theory… but ultimately we got the same result. I find it interesting how you can get to the same place with different methods.

    why do you copy the circle if you resize it again :D, 6:10
    The golden ratio in the logo symbol is something in vain, and in the end what you have to believe is your eyes, not numbers
    its just a guide, but if it ruins the shape , what for ?

    I got question for you (or a suggestion for next video):
    When do we really need to print with Pantone color and not CMYK?
    Sometimes I see the colors are perfect in CMYK but I always feel the need to change them into Pantone Colors but after changing them on Ai the colors aren't those I want.
    I know the differences between CMYK and Pantone but I don't really know (or not sure) which to use and when.
    Thnx.

      @DigitalBrooke Год назад +1

      I’m digital only, but my print guru at work said “just call the printer and he’ll tell you what to use”. She said in a nutshell it’s literally more about the TYPE of PAPER you’re printing on and the TYPE of PRINTER he’s using.
      Of course with CC now requiring a Pantone license I started asking questions like: why can’t we just use hex equivalents. She glared comically. 😂

    Hi! Recently I started watching your videos and I have to say I got immediately drawn to your channel. I want to become a graphic designer, mainly doing logos, branding and stuff. However I haven't got any sort of experience and I have to start from the scratch. The career of logo designer seems greatly appealing to me and therefore I want to ask you. Could you recommend any type of course that will show me all of the important stuff that there is to learn about graphic design? As I said my experience is low. I only used to work with Gimp and then with Photoshop to make some banners for youtube, thumbnails or just random compositions.
    I'm not good at drawing complex pictures, but I think I'll be realy good with simple and attractive designs. Hoping to get your response and I wish you all the best in the future, because your designs and content are fun and inspiring. Cheers!

    Golden ratio is overghyped and nobody can convince me otherwise. Most people dont even use it properly.

      Yeah, I think it can be overhyped. However, I believe it to be a useful tool. So I wouldn't automatically just say "It's just hype" and not use it. :)
