PATTERN

This week's photo challenge from Chania at Razmataz

is Pattern

Patterns in nature are overwhelmingly governed by a clever mathmatical equation called

The Golden Mean, or The Golden Ration or Divine Proportion.

Essentially this:

and it appears in the pattern of everthing from the nautilus shell,

to the segments of a grapefruit.

It's found in the patterns of design in Notre Dame,

the parthenon

and even in Da Vinci's Last Supper.

Charles-Édouard Jeanneret, Le Corbusier, the Swiss architect and designer is said to have adhered closely to this pattern when designing his furniture.

I know this is a photo-challenge, so to make it a legitimate entry the last photo is mine, taken in the kitchen of our house in Florida.
