The Modulor Man is a recurring silhouette in Le Corbusier’s buildings and art, a stylized human figure, standing proudly and square-shouldered, sometimes with one arm raised, approximately six feet tall. THE VITRUVIAN MAN According to Vitruvius's theory, the distance from fingertip to fingertip (arm span) should be equal to the distance from head to heel (height). B.

KINESTHETICS  Kinesthetics is the study of body motion, and of the perception (both conscious and unconscious) of one's own body motions. It is the learning of movements that an individual commonly performs. IV. ERGONOMICS Ergonomics is the process of designing or arranging workplaces, products and systems so that they fit the people who use them. It aims to create safe, comfortable and productive workspaces by bringing human abilities and limitations into the design of a workspace. V. SPATIAL THEORIES A. TERRITORY In architecture, territory is defined as a live organism’s boundary to determine their demands, marks, and defend it. Territory for humans is not only limited physically in space but it is also related to emotional and cultural needs. There are many ways in determining and identifying a territory such as: 5 | A R DES 111  UNIVERSITY OF SAINT ANTHONY (DR. SANTIAGO G.
