Post-and-lintel system, in building construction, a system in which two upright members, the posts, hold up a third member, the lintel, laid horizontally across their top surfaces. All structural openings have evolved from this system, which is seen in pure form only in colonnades and in framed structures, because the posts of doors, windows, ceilings, and roofs normally form part of the wall.
To me, the golden spiral is the proportional basis that makes the most sense. In a landscape painting the views eye is automatically directed to the center of the spiral and can be used by the artist to put their subject in the eye of the viewer.
