Conclusion about the Golden Number

As you could see, the golden number is THE number of architecture and harmony. It represents by itself the many links existing between mathematics and architecture. We can find it into different patterns, like the triangle or the rectangle, and in architectures of any age, from the Cheops Pyramid to the United Nations Headquarters, passing by the Parthenon. We found it many times in the Antiquity, but more recently, men like Le Corbusier updated it. There are many ways to calculate it, but finally, the golden number is just a story of proportion, and its use creates the golden proportion, the perfect proportions of beauty and harmony.
