Description
The Archisutra: The Handbook's Final Chapter by Miguel Bolivar is a unique design manual that explores the relationship between architecture and human intimacy. This book builds upon the work of influential architects, including Le Corbusier, who coined the phrase 'machines for living'. By examining annotated scale drawings and informative descriptions, readers will learn how to design buildings that cater to human needs and desires. The Archisutra delves into the world of sex positions, using a combination of scale drawings and descriptive text. It also explores the concept of human formwork, as seen in Leonardo da Vinci's Vitruvian Man, and Le Corbusier's Modulor system. This book aims to push the idea that buildings should be designed around human life, rather than just functional space. With its focus on human intimacy and design, The Archisutra is an intriguing read for architects, designers, and anyone interested in the intersection of architecture and everyday life.
