Description

This is an updated version of my previous Le Corbusier Modulor model.

From Wikipedia:

The Modulor is an anthropometric scale of proportions devised by the Swiss-born French architect Le Corbusier (1887–1965). It was developed as a visual bridge between two incompatible scales, the Imperial and the metric systems. It is based on the height of a man with his arm raised. 

______________________________________________________________

The Modulor gives designers a set of ideal dimensions for things like rooms, doors, furniture, and buildings. The mathematical design of the Modulor is surprisingly complicated and elegant, and it is a fine example of the intersection between mathematics and art. The Golden Ratio also features prominently in the scale, as well as other mathematical functions such as the sine curve. 

To ensure greater mathematical accuracy than my previous version, I built the model programmatically in Python. The code builds upon the high-res image of the Modulor available on Wikipedia here: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Le_Corbusier%27s_Modulor.png. 

I have attached the code below if you wish to tinker with it.
