In the years 1942 to 1948, Le
Corbusier developed a system of
measurements which became known as "Modulor". Based on the Golden
Section and Fibonacci numbers and also using the physical dimensions of
the average human, Modulor is a sequence of measurements which Le
Corbusier used to achieve harmony in his architectural compositions. Le
Modulor was published in 1950 and after meeting with success, Le
Corbusier went on to publish Modulor 2 in 1955. In many of Le
Corbusier's most notable buildings, including the Chapel at Ronchamp
and the Unité d'habitation, evidence of his Modulor system can
be seen.
These two volumes form an important and integral part of Le Corbusier's
theoretical writings. I see web design as the same
principles but with a different twist integrating layers of
concepts into a balanced corporate identity.
