14) The Golden Ratio

Graphic designers use the Golden Ratio because the proportions of the golden ratio are aesthetically pleasing. In art the golden ratio is usually used as a Golden Rectangle in which there is a ratio between the longer side and the shorter sides of the rectangle. This rectangle keeps getting repeated within itself over and over again, casually making a spiral on the page, and saying that the major items on the page should fall with these rectangles.
