Description

Explore the foundational measurement system of one of history's most influential architects. This two-volume set contains the original French versions of Le Corbusier's groundbreaking work. Developed between 1942 and 1948, the Modulor system uses the Golden Section, Fibonacci numbers, and human physical dimensions to create harmony in architectural design. This collection includes the highly successful Le Modulor, published in 1950, and its follow-up, Modulor 2, released in 1955. Readers can trace the application of this mathematical sequence through his most famous architectural achievements, such as the Chapel at Ronchamp and the Unite d'habitation. These volumes provide a direct look at the principles used to achieve balance and proportion in modern building compositions. It is an essential resource for students, architects, and enthusiasts of design history looking to understand the mathematical logic behind iconic structures.
