In January 2007, guest‐editors Andrew Peckham and Torsten Schmiedeknecht met with OM Ungers in the library of his Belvederestrasse house in Cologne Müngersdorf.1 A ‘round table’ discussion followed, with the architect, his wife, daughter and archivist, prompting a series of dialogues with Ungers centred on his built works, projects, thinking and teaching. The authors gained a unique insight into Ungers' varied and often influential career, and took the opportunity to re‐examine the preconceptions surrounding it. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
