The Human Figure…

I recently posted an image that contained a compendium of measurement date from the Architectural Graphic Standards from 1946. Well, here’s another interesting plate from the same book, showing the Dimensions of the Human Figure. It kind of gives you an idea of some of the things that an Architect might think about when designing a space for working in. From how high to make a shelf to how low to make a table, this set of drawings goes into a great deal of detail, and is pretty interesting to check out.
