The aims of the Women in Architecture Berlin 2021 festival were to make female architects visible, provide them with a platform and a voice, and to showcase their achievements. Institutions, associations, and initiatives in the field of building culture were all encouraged to take part. Seventy years after the death of Emilie Winkelmann, the first successful female German architect, the organizers wanted to consider the current status of women in architecture: Who are the strongest female players in the building sector today? Are they being acknowledged? What is the state of equality in building culture and how does the profession need to be modified? This publication highlights what political, teaching, and commercial institutions, managers and employees, university leaders and professors can do—and in some cases have already done—to promote equality on the building site.

Not enough research has been conducted on the pioneering work of Austria’s female architects and, as a result, many of them remain in relative obsurity. Most were members of ZV Österreich, until 1959 Austria’s main guild of freelance architects. It is therefore worthwhile delving into the archives of the ZV. This publication is dedicated to these women, documents their names, and presents their lives and careers as examples. The international work of these women ranges from homes to churches and factories, interior design and urban planning, and even extends to the construction of power plants.

The Women who changed Architecture chronicles the pioneering women worldwide who have shaped architecture since the late nineteenth century. Women have long been underrepresented in architectural history books, perpetuating the notion that the profession is solely the domain of men. The Women who changed Architecture is a critical step toward correcting the record, highlighting such accomplished practioners as Marion Mahony Griffin, the first woman to receive an architecture license in the United States, in 1894, and Frank Lloyd Wright's longtime lead designer ; Llly Reich, whose pivotal work in the design of the world-renowned Barcelona Pavilion was credited to Mies van der Rohe ; and Anne Griswold Tyng, who played an instrumental role in the design of the interior of Louis Kahn's Yale University Art Gallery and Design Center, considered solely his masterpiece.

In the late 1960s, the feminist scholar Kate Millet broadly defined »politics« as arrangements of power which enable individuals collectively to assert authority over others. Taking this definition, case studies by scholars from Europe and Israel explore the gendered professional in the 20th century as she navigated arrangements of power-including organised religion, emancipation movements, cultural norms, and shifting forms of government-to practice architecture. Additional contributions reflect upon power structures in contemporary architectural education, practice, and history to propose other means of architectural knowledge, representation, and professional activity.

Making Space, first published in 1984, is a pioneering collection of essays which challenges us to look at how the built environment impacts women's lives. It exposes the sexist assumptions on gender and sexuality that have a fundamental impact on the way buildings are designed and our cities are planned. Written collaboratively by the feminist collective Matrix, the book provides a full blown critique of the patriarchal built environment both in the home and in public space, outlining alternative forms of practice that are still relevant today. It remains a landmark book highlighting the possibilities of a feminist future. This updated edition comes with a new foreword examining the context, process and legacy of Making Space written by two leading feminists in architecture.
