Abstract
The study re‐examined the finding that blind and sighted subjects haptically perceiving various rectangular proportions, including the golden section, preferred the square as most pleasing. While rectangular preferences of congenitally blind subjects questioned the existence of the golden section as a haptically satisfying figure, the preferences of late blind and sighted subjects generally confirmed the haptic aesthetic value of the golden section. The results thus indicated that the haptic perception of the golden rectangle as aesthetically pleasing is contingent on contact with the visual world.
