Modular Coordination

No. Modular Coordination is an industrial dimensioning discipline so prefabricated building components align on a common grid; the Modulor is Le Corbusier's own proportional design system, one architectural take on the same underlying idea.

Modular Coordination is a design and construction discipline in which building components are dimensioned to fit a common grid module, so that prefabricated elements from different manufacturers align without cutting or improvising on site; it was widely adopted after the Second World War to speed industrialized housing and is written into national and international building standards. The Modulor is a specific proportional system developed by the architect Le Corbusier, based on human body measurements and the golden ratio, and applied to his own buildings' proportions rather than to industry wide component sizing. This atlas's own record already describes the Modulor as a well known architectural take on the same underlying idea as modular coordination, not the coordination standard itself.
