Description / Content:
A Spanish-language scholarly article explaining Le Corbusier’s Modulor as an anthropometric and proportional system based on the human body, the golden section, Fibonacci sequences, the double square, geometry, and harmonic measurement. The article examines the construction and historical development of the Modulor between 1943 and 1954, its red and blue series, the contributions of Le Corbusier’s collaborators, and the evolution of the Modulor Man as a graphic symbol. It also considers the system’s continuing relevance to architectural design, proportion, ergonomics, standardization, and visual research. This publication is provided for architectural study, historical reference, proportional analysis, visual research, and educational use.
