How Do You Design Furniture Using The Fibonacci Sequence?
The Fibonacci sequence is a sequence of numbers in which each term is the result of adding the previous two terms. When applied to furniture design, Leonardo Fibonacci’s sequence, beginning with 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13 and going on into infinity, creates eye-catching and well-proportioned results. Read on to learn how to use the Fibonacci sequence to help you design furniture containing drawers. Decide how many drawers you want in your piece of furniture. Base your decision on how big your piece is, how much you want to store in it and what look you’re going for. Write out the Fibonacci sequence, starting with 1, 1 and adding each pair of terms to get the next one. Continue to write out the sequence until you reach a number appropriate for the size of the largest drawer face height. Assign this measurement as the size of the bottom drawer face height. Work backwards through the Fibonacci sequence, written out in Step 2, and assign values to the remaining drawers. For example, if your bottom
