Zaha Hadid, Heydar Aliyev Center in Baku, Azerbaijan.

The famous architect Zaha Hadid expertly utilised the golden ratio into her buildingdesigns. For millennia,artists have employed the golden ratio,which approximatesa harmonic ratio of 1:1.618, to design beautiful compositions. The Heydar Aliyev Centre and London Aquatics Centre are two examples of Hadid's work that incorporatesthe golden ratio. These structures follow the golden ratio's rules for proportions and spatial connections,which promote harmony and balance. The rigorous attention of proportions and ratios can be seen in Hadid's designs even in larger-scale projects like the Guangzhou Opera House.

Hadid used the golden ratio to create spaces that are both aesthetically pleasing and harmonious with their environment.Future architects will be motivated to investigatethe mathematical underpinningsof design and push the bounds of architectural expression thanks to her innovativeapproach to buildingand use of the golden ratio.
