    I heard once that architects use it all the time to decide how far off the ground windows will be placed and that sort of thing.

    Also check this article out http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/8421076.stm
    "On length, the distance between a woman's eyes and mouth should be just over a third or 36%, of the overall length of her face, from hairline to chin.
    For width, they calculated that the space between a woman's pupils should be just under half, or 46%, of the width of her face from ear to ear."
