Description

Presents theoretical issues which have arisen in 20th-century practice and criticism, raises a number of ethical issues in relation to architectural practice and their impact on theory, examines the validity of certain architectural positions currently adopted within the architectural profession, and finally discusses prospects for a viable architectural future by reviewing ideas informing both visions for and the projected context of the profession. Assessment is project based and requires textual as well as visual modes of production.
