DB: what are ethics in architecture?



y: we believe beauty is one of the structural agencies.
beauty exists quite closely to rationality.
t: beauty has a reason. when a building is lit at day,
it is just a lighting scheme. but the night view of a city
is very different. people love night views because you
see the life behind each light. that liveliness brings beauty.
you can make something different every time, but it is very
hard to achieve healthy and lively beauty.
