Le Modulor



Le  modulor is a system of measurement proposed byLe Corbusier and his colleagues in the 1940’s by the French architect. The modulor is based on the dimensions and proportions of the human body for example; from the sitting human body to standing human body. The movement is increasing little by little.

The purpose of the modulor was to introduce an element based on human dimensions into modern architecture and artistic design. The modulor was used constantly in a number of Le Corbusier’s projects and has great influence on world architecture, especially in designs.
