Prof. Dr. Safa Lutfi recently published her book titled (Ratio and Proportion between Concept and Application in Art, Design and Architecture - An Analytical Study) and the author mentions in the introduction to the book: There is no doubt that all forms in the universe are organized in a specific system, and that the visible and existing forms in the natural world are governed by proportion and proportion. The Mesopotamian civilizations that appeared on their surface were the first human attempts on the planet to produce a civilization that runs in a system and in a distinct proportion and proportion, and with it was the first attempt to explain the system in nature, through what was produced by the hand of the Mesopotamian human being in terms of an advanced civilizational achievement of visual patterns gradually over time. This is embodied in the number and cylinder seals. Thus, proportion and proportionality appeared in the cultural achievement since ancient times as a model for aesthetic organization. In this book, the author deals with definitions of ratio and proportion, their principles, and then their applications. Then the book deals with analytical studies of models of art, design, and architecture. The book is a large piece of more than 200 pages.
