Join Zaha Hadid, Winy Maas and Cameron Sinclair plus other world renowned architects and thinkers for the first in a series of groundbreaking and provocative annual debates exploring the ideas and issues driving architectural practice in the 21st century.
Le Corbusier’s manifold legacy presents the perfect starting point for exploring the place of ethics in the architecture of our time. What ethical issues does Le Corbusier’s practice pose for architects? Can we reconcile Le Corbusier’s apparently destructive urbanist legacy with his humanist project? How are today’s leading architects navigating the ethical dilemmas of building during a time of increasing economic disparities and diminishing resources?
Early booking advised.
