This book describes and accounts for new opportunities for ethical reflection in architecture and adjacent design practices. Bringing together the reflections of an architectural theorist and a philosopher, it explores the possibilities for ethical speculation across their disciplines and respective concerns, aiming for a rapprochement, rather than merger between them.
