Nietzsche and Architecture explores Nietzsches relationship to the architects, buildings, and modern architectural movements he went on to inspire, and situates his philosophy more appropriately and comprehensively within the field of architectural studies, architectural history, and theory.

Sullivans desire for the heights, and the cultural propaganda of Nazi architecture.Clearly explaining the subtleties and complexities of Nietzsches architectural thought, Nietzsche and Architecture provides an accessible insight into Nietzsches philosophy and its significance to the development of modern architecture in the 19th and early 20th centuries, shedding vital light on the continued relevance of Nietzsche to architecture today.
