Ethical Design Intelligence: The Virtuous Designer explores the
deep significance of philosophy and ethics to the practice of
design. It offers designers from disciplines such as architecture,
urban design, planning, landscape, interior, and industrial design
an alternative ethical framework in which to expand their thinking
about their practice. Arguing that design today is primarily an
agency driven by the momentum of globalization, embedded in
economy, materialism, and utility, the book reconceptualizes the
notion of virtue in design practice. Across chapters covering
topics such as virtuous character, creative agency, and
unsustainable practices, the book scrutinizes design through a
philosophical lens. d'Anjou dissects articulations from different
philosophical thinkers from antiquity to contemporary time to
reveal that ethics is fundamental to everything affected by design.
Countering well-established modes of postmodern relativism in
design, which has led to "defuturing" and "unsustainability,"
ethical realism is presented as an alternative solution. This book
is written for designers, educators, researchers, and students.
