Abstract

Mathematical equations have been used in the design and production of nature motifs, such as jewelry, fashion, furniture, textiles and visual arts. The Gielis' Supershape (GS) is one of the mathematical equations that could be used in the design of nature motifs. GS is a simple and powerful tool for designing nature motifs, but it is not yet extensively used in industries. This could happen because not many researches were conducted to analyze the aesthetic of the nature motif generated by GS. Therefore, this study aims to address this gap by employing the PhiMatrix software to examine the presence of the golden ratio characteristic in nature motifs generated by GS and Enhanced Gielis' Supershapes (EGS). Through a systematic exploration and assessment of these two equations, the study aims to provide valuable insights into enhancing the quality of design and aesthetic appeal in nature motifs. The research seeks to contribute to the field by advocating for the adoption of GS and EGS equations as effective tools in designing nature motifs, thereby expanding creative possibilities across various industries.
