Can't find ANY golden ratio in the schroder house...

179 Views Asked by At

The Schroder House (The Netherlands) is supposed to be designed using the "golden ratio". I'm having trouble finding these golden ratio's. A lot of rectangles, windows, house sections, etc. appear to be using the golden ratio, but, when measuring, I find that they actually don't.

Anyone who can point me to a few golden ratio's in the house? I even tried a pixel ruler for the measurements, but even then I find 70-30 or 65-35 ratio's, not "golden ratio's".

Plans and front wing of the building can be found here.

Thanks!
