the barbican debate ethics in architecture: the corbusian legacy

‘can good design change the world?’ le corbusier thought it could.
do we agree with him – and what do architects believe now?

the panel of major international figures explore the vital questions of ethics
in architecture today. they include globally acclaimed massimiliano fuksas;
pritzker architecture prize-winning zaha hadid; celebrated landscape-architect,
corb scholar and commentator, charles jencks; founding partner of the leading
architectural practice MVRDV, winy maas; the co-founder of architecture
for humanity, cameron sinclair.

the discussion is based on  le corbusier’s famous manifesto for modernism, his
‘five points of a new architecture’.
