The sketch of the Vitruvian Man depicts the perfect male form as seen by Vitruvius. Vitruvius aimed to discover the mathematical proportions of the human body and use the findings to improve the function and appearance of architecture.In more modern times, the architect Le Corbusier devised an anthropometric scale of proportions, a further development from Vitruvius’ work. He called his system The Modulor. The Modulor, was a standard model of the human form used by Le Corbusier to determine the correct amount of living space needed for residents in his buildings.The Archisutra follows on from the work of Vitruvius, da Vinci and Le Corbusier and pushes the idea that buildings should be designed around human life."An essential to anyone's home" - Kevin, UK."I always keep a tape measure and protractor near my bed" - George, UK"Nothing turns me on more than when my husband reaches for the measuring tape" - Joanna, USA
