LE MODULOR


According to 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 system and the Metric system. It is based on the height of an English man with his arm raised. It was used as a system to set out a number of Le Corbusier's buildings and was later codified into two books.

For me, Le Modular seems like when you want measure height of human. It also have same meaning of between yard and meter that can be your number of your height.
