"In Le Corbusiers buildings and art a recurrent silhouette appears: the Modulor Man. Its a stylised human figure standing proudly and square-shouldered sometimes with one arm raised the mascot of Le Corbusiers system for re-ordering the universe.The Modulor was meant as a universal system of proportions. The ambition was vast: it was devised to reconcile maths the human form architecture and beauty into a single system. This system could then be used to provide the measurements for all aspects of design from door handles to entire cities and Corbusier believed that it could be further applied to industry and mechanics. The modulor system had a series of scales and measurements laid out in a modulor rule. The fundamental 'module' of the Modulor is a six-foot man allegedly based on the usual height of the detectives in the English crime novels Corbusier enjoyed" ICON website. First Edition. Hardback.

Le Corbusier 1887-1965 is one of Modernism's most influential architects urban planners and theorists. Born Charles Edouard Jeanneret in La Chaux-de-Fonds Switzerland the self-named Le Corbusier was the creator of some of the most important and impressive buildings of the past century - Villa Savoye at Poissy the Chapel of Notre Dame du Haut at Ronchamp the Parliament Building in Chandigarh India. He was also an accomplished painter sculpture furniture designer urbanist and author. His work and social theories continue to be a dominant force in the world of architecture and design while his elegant bearing typified by his round black eyeglasses still a signature look for architects around the world helped cast him as a heroic figure out of Ayn Rand's The Fountainhead. Organized chronologically and drawing on an array of archival material including sketches photographs and correspondences Le Corbusier Le Grand depicts not only the vast and varied output of Le Corbusier but also the major events people and forces that shaped the life of an artist who continues to fascinate those in and outside the architectural world.
