Book excerpt: While we all study design in our grad schools, we come across a plethora of geometries to work with, in our Designs. Out of all those geometries, the least attention is paid to working in rectilinear forms as It is often considered easy to create visual interest in your work by using forms and shapes which are visually more Dynamic, for example, the curvilinear and the triangular ones.Straight lines are either considered too bland or too difficult to create beauty with. But Ironically they are also considered the most functional. And more often than not, when an Architect or Designer dives into the real world of practice, the straight lines are the most omnipresent and economical to construct geometry out there.Are straight lines as boring and bland, as they seem at the surface? Is it possible to create beauty and harmony just using straight lines, squares and rectangles? What is the Golden Section? Are there harmonious proportions other than the Golden Section? Why are these ratios considered beautiful?Let us find out answers to all these questions in this invigorating and enlightening journey.
