Friedrich Nietzsche's architectural proposal is to build a world. It is not so much a megalomeniac and over-ambitious project in which Nietzsche would lead us to a perfect utopia according to his own taste, but more so a proposed conduct for nihilist Modern men, who have lost God, to overcome that nihilism. Recognizing the weakness of Modern man's life-compass, Nietzsche is the "architect" who builds a Denkraum, a space for reflection, from which man can master his world once more.
