  • Achieving a precise Golden Ratio of 1.618 can be challenging without accurate measuring tools, making it hard to maintain proper proportions in sketches. Also, creating this ratio often requires multiple tools, which is inconvenient. Unlike other drafting tools, this set is designed to allow users to create works in golden ratio. This addresses a gap in the market for tools that are able to utilize space and create golden ratio designs within a limited space.

  • Designed in a compact size, it allows users to maximize functionality by utilizing the space inside these geometric tools that apply golden ratio. For instance, the Circle tool can create shapes twice its size. The Triangle tool incorporates multiple groups of triangles in the golden ratio of 1.618. Shaped like a golden spiral line, the TG tool is able to achieve a perfect parabolic curve in golden ratio proportion. This tool set allows different levels of users to create golden ratio proportions using its intuitive shape, maximizing functionality and for creative works.

  • Crafted from stainless steel, this tool set is durable and recyclable. Its compact design minimizes waste and raw material use while maintaining functionality. Suitable for both beginners and professionals, the tool set builds a community and network among artists and designers, encouraging collaboration and cultural diversity. It supports social sustainability through these artists’ connections and interactions, breaking down cultural barriers, promoting creativity and fostering learning.

  • Each individual tool comes with measurement rulers in inches, millimeters, and circumference specifically for the circle tool. The Circle Tool can draw 112 different circles with radii ranging from 0.5 to 95mm. It includes various sizes of marker line holes towards the edge, designed for thicker pen refills and radiating lines. The Triangle Tool includes multiple shape markings for drawing triangles and is able to draw circles with radii from 7.2 to 90mm. The TG Tool can draw circles, measure angles from 0° to 104°, create isosceles triangles as well as parabolic curves. Simplify design by replacing multiple tools and ensure consistent result.
