[The Fibonacci Series]

Golden Spiral

The Golden Spiral, sometimes called the Golden Round, is a spiral with proportions similar to the Golden Rectangle. It is constructed in a similar fashion to the Fibonacci Spiral, except that, rather than starting small and working out, you start large and work inward.

Golden Spiral

This spiral is actually only a series of quarter-circles drawn in squares. These squares have been inscribed in Golden Rectangles, as shown below. All rectangles in the diagram below are Golden Rectangles.
