Architectural Design and Ethics offers both professional architects
and architecture students a theoretical base and numerous
suggestions as to how we might rethink our responsibilities to the
natural world and design a more sustainable future for ourselves.
As we find ourselves on the steep slope of several exponential
growth curves - in global population, in heat-trapping atmospheric
gases, in the gap between the rich and poor, and in the demand for
finite resources, Fisher lays down a theory of architecture based
on ethics and explores how buildings can and do provide both social
and moral dimensions. The book also has practical goals,
demonstrating how architects can make better and more beautiful
buildings whilst nurturing more responsible, sustainable
development. Architectural Design and Ethics will prove an
invaluable text not only to those in the architecture field, but to
anyone simply interested in the ethical issues surrounding our
built environment.
