Fibonacci Flower II
Concept Fibonacci Circles The Fibonacci Circles collection shows arrangements of circles whose diameter corresponds to the Fibonacci numbers. The diameter of a single circle is therefore the sum of the diameters of the next two smaller circles. The colored areas grow as the square of the Fibonacci numbers.

Fibonacci Pentagons The Fibonacci Pentagons collection shows arrangements of regular pentagons whose side lengths are Fibonacci numbers. A regular pentagon has five sides of equal length and five diagonals of equal length. The five interior angles are 108º, making a total of 540º. Regular pentagons have the fascinating property that the ratio of their diagonals […]

Titillating Tilt
Fibonacci Squares The Fibonacci Squares collection shows arrangements of Fibonacci squares whose side lengths are Fibonacci numbers. Titillating Tilt Titillating Tilt is a series of colorful, nested Fibonacci squares, a small one within the next larger. The larger becomes the frame of the smaller. Due to the law of Fibonacci numbers, the frame width is […]

Fibonacci Squares The Fibonacci Squares collection shows arrangements of Fibonacci squares whose side lengths are Fibonacci numbers. Fibonacci squares have the fascinating property that they can be composed of the next two smaller Fibonacci squares and two Fibonacci rectangles. (The side lengths of a Fibonacci rectangle are two consecutive Fibonacci numbers.) The smaller Fibonacci squares […]

Concept Fibonacci Hexagons The Fibonacci Hexagons collection shows arrangements of hexagons (regular equilateral hexagons) whose side lengths correspond to Fibonacci numbers. The hexagon has the interesting property that the length of all three diagonals is twice the length of the side, i.e. twice a Fibonacci number. This allows the two smaller hexagons to be plotted […]
