Designing the ASP Sigil / Logo

Quite a few people have shown interest in the elements involved in the ASP Apparel logo design, a personal sigil created by Ashley S. Palmer.

The main elements in the design utilise the Golden ratio. The golden ratio (denoted by the Greek letter phi) is an irrational mathematical constant, approximately 1.6180339887. It has been employed by many artists throughout history for the aesthetically pleasing effect of the proportions of the ratio when applied to design and geometry.

Proving to be a source of intrigue for thousands of years, the golden ratio is even found in the architecture of places of historical importance and beauty such as Stonehenge, The Great Pyramid of Giza and the Parthenon.

This wireframe image shows the construction of the logo and its relationship with the golden ratio, Fibonacci sequence and formation of Trapezoids, Pentagram/gons and Asps (snakes).
