The Original Thinking Behind The Buildings Of Le Corbusier

The idea of function and form explored in the thinking of the Greek builder Vitruvian of using the human being as the measure of good proportion was re-explored by Leonardo Da Vinci in the Vitruvian Man analysis.

The architecture of Greece and the architecture of the Renaissance took on the way they look and feel the way they are today is because of application of mathematical proportions by original thinkers.

Le Corbusier, the French architect born in Sweden (1887) explored this in greater depths by applying the principles of the Fibonacci Sequence to the height of an English man with raised arm.

This video shows the beauty of Le Corbusier's original application of a mathematical ratio.
