Spirals

Below are a few of the most famous spiral staircases in the world.
Barcelona. Designed by Antoni Gaudì (1852-1926

An asylum.

Fibonacci Curve:
a universal pattern of nature found 
in everything from conch shells 
to galaxy spirals,
including your spiral staircase
You don't even have to renew your passport,
catch a cold on a plane,
get lost, 
then find the destination,
wait in lines,
....just enjoy.

Try not to get dizzy!!!













I don't know what it is 
about this simple staircase,
it is just that I have imagined
 it to be in a private artist's studio.
....I am always dreaming something up in my head....




I hope you are not dizzy.


I am.
hehehehehhehe

  3. Renee,

    Love all the spirals. They remind us that when we move forward we can't move fast enough and when we look back we become dizzy. Why? Because we never really realize how fast we're moving until we slow down and look around.

  14. I absolutely love the form. I posted about a year ago on them, they are forever fascinating!
    I got my motivation after seeing the Reichstag - the newly rebuild German Parliament in Berlin! It has an enormous spiral walk way into the cupola!
    Your post is a great collection of spiral forms!
    Nature is a great guide!
