WOMEN IN ARCHITECTURE
The Routledge Companion to Women in Architecture illuminates the names of pioneering women who
over time continue to foster, shape, and build cultural, spiritual, and physical environments in diverse
regions around the globe. It uncovers the remarkable evolution of women’s leadership, professional
perspectives, craftsmanship, and scholarship in architecture from the preindustrial age to the present.
The book is organized chronologically in five parts, outlining the stages of women’s expanding
engagement, leadership, and contributions to architecture through the centuries. It contains twenty-
nine chapters written by thirty-three recognized scholars committed to probing broader topographies
across time and place and presenting portraits of practicing architects, leaders, teachers, writers, critics,
and other kinds of professionals in the built environment. The intertwined research sets out debates,
questions, and projects around women in architecture, stimulates broader studies and discussions in
emerging areas, and becomes a catalyst for academic programs and future publications on the subject.
The novelty of this volume is in presenting not only a collection of case studies but in broadening
the discipline by advancing an incisive overview of the topic as a whole. It is an invaluable resource
for architectural historians, academics, students, and professionals.
Anna Sokolina is an architect, historian, curator, and founding Chair of SAH Women in Architecture
AG, who also contributes to the Advisory Boards of the International Archive of Women in Architecture
and The Bloomsbury Global Encyclopedia of Women in Architecture (ed. Lori Brown and Karen Burns,
forthcoming). She holds a PhD in Theory and History of Architecture and Landmarks Preservation
from the VNIITAG branch of the Russian Academy of Architecture and Construction Sciences
(1992). She graduated from the Moscow Institute of Architecture (1980) and New York University
SPS (2001) and interned at the Guggenheim Museum New York, Cooper-Hewitt Smithsonian Design
Museum, and the Public Design Commission at the NYC Mayor’s Office, and has contributed to the
Metropolitan Museum of Art (1999–2007), the Morgan Library and Museum, and ARTMargins. She
worked as an architect and a Research Associate at CNIITIA/VNIITAG, as Curator of Exhibitions
at the Tabakman Museum, and was a member of the architecture faculty at Miami University, where
she also curated the Cage Gallery. She was the first independent woman curator of the itinerant
Paper Architecture exhibitions in Germany and France (1992–1993) and the first lecturer from Russia
invited after the collapse of the USSR by the European Academy of the Urban Environment
(EA.UE Berlin) in the UNESCO program “Sustainable Settlements.” She has received seventeen
grants and awards; her 104 artworks are housed in twenty-three collections; and her over ninety
publications include the monographs Architecture and Anthroposophy (ed., 2001, 2010, e-access 2019),
and Building Utopia: Architecture of the GDR (in progress).
“The publication of this anthology is cause for celebration. Bringing together a wide variety of
scholars concerned with the diverse contributions of women in architecture from the preindustrial
age to the present, the book brings to light the work of both little-known figures of the past and
established leaders working today. This anthology will quickly be recognized as essential reading for
students and for anyone with an interest in the field.”
—Alice T. Friedman, PhD, Grace Slack McNeil Professor
of American Art, Wellesley College, MA
“I strongly support the publication of editor Anna Sokolina’s The Routledge Companion to Women in
Architecture as a significant contribution to the literature in architectural history as well as intersecting
fields of design, planning, and preservation. The collected chapters reveal the broad scholarship
that has turned from a long-held, narrow cannon to engagement with alternative narratives of
individuals, places, and projects. The inclusion of research on women from less studied geographies
such as Mongolia, Russia, and Turkey, and projects in places from Palestine to Rwanda, contributes
to filling the significant gap in studies on both the diversity and the networks women have created
and stewarded. This edited volume will be a resource for teaching architectural history as well as for
professional practice courses.”
—Thaïsa Way, PhD, FASLA, FAAR, Professor, College of Built
Environments, University of Washington, Seattle
“This fascinating volume offers an invaluable transnational perspective on the significant and wide-
ranging nature of women’s agency in the making of the built environment. From the early modern
period to the present day, the case studies it presents interrogate and challenge our understandings of
the interaction between gender and architecture.”
—Elizabeth Darling, PhD, Reader in Architectural History, School
of History, Philosophy and Culture, Oxford Brookes University, UK
“This book will be a valuable resource for scholars and students alike. In its historical and geographical
breadth, it underscores the diversity of women’s contributions to architecture and proposes many
new avenues of research. By illuminating little-known protagonists, the volume advances a more
complete and inclusive architectural history.”
—Kathryn E. O’Rourke, PhD, Associate Professor, Department of Art
and Art History, Trinity University, San Antonio, TX
“This anthology brings together high-quality scholarship that emphasizes the resourcefulness and
talent of women who made their mark on the built environment. From institutions to archives to
homes, spaces by women come alive in these inclusive, well-researched writings. Attuned to the
needs of students, scholars, professionals, and the broader audience, this accessible volume is a long-
awaited contribution to the literature on women in architecture.”
—Carla Yanni, PhD, Professor, Department of Art History, School of Arts
and Sciences, Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey

PREFACE
My life as an architect has been determined by the frozen music of capital cities and by the luminous
terrains of the unbuilt social utopias. Now I revisit and reevaluate anew my path through the prism
of global calamities and transitions, and I reassess the prospects of my generation, the glorious tree
of modern knowledge, the declarations of gender equality, and in this volume place my emphasis
on integrity, enlightenment, and justice, by revealing the immense yet overwhelmingly concealed
contribution of the female half of the Earth’s population to shaping our built environments.
Our Time
The world is changing. Having been born in the Eastern Hemisphere, with my early professional
beginnings in the capital of the communal utopia at dusk, I was surrounded by remarkable women,
role models across industries and academia. As the male population of Europe and Russia was
greatly wiped out during brutal twentieth-century wars, women there constituted the majority of
the workforce; today, women make primary decisions, shape living environments, and take over
responsibilities. When I turned four years old, my mother showed me to her civil engineering office
at a major state design institution in Moscow and introduced me to her colleagues, mostly women,
as a future architect.
Being trained to regard both the Western and the Eastern perspectives, I also had the privilege
of learning by example while simultaneously working full-time, starting my family, studying in the
PhD program (both in Germany and in Russia), and later curating professional exhibitions and lec-
turing in Western Europe. In the early 1990s we immigrated to the US, where I have since studied
and worked. I have been designing, writing, curating, painting, crafting models and installations,
drawing, laboring on a construction plant, working with contractors, running an office, and teach-
ing studio courses in architecture and environmental design, theory-history, and independent study.
My teaching philosophy grew out of those personal and social ties to bridge craters by fostering
fundamental values of collaboration and collegial support.
Our industry is ruled by men. American urban landscape historian Thaïsa Way, in our corre-
spondence concerning my efforts as the Founding Chair of the Women in Architecture Affiliate Group
of the Society of Architectural Historians, referenced Professor Mabel Wilson on the meaning of the
term “architecture” in traditional chronologies as “exclusionary” and “embedded with white male
supremacy” and thus exempt from future histories.1 Respectfully, I believe that the massive presence
xxv
Preface
of women in architecture over the recent century—and, in particular, the female prevalence by
numbers in certain regions across continents, that is, in Eastern European countries, Russia, the
Baltic republics, the republics of Caucasus (Armenia, Georgia, Azerbaijan), arguably in Mongolia,
Kazakhstan, etc.—proves that architecture has a great future, going far beyond what has been pro-
filed in the Western contexts as a historically exclusive “boys’ club.”2
A holistic take on architecture—rooted in the knowledge of coexistence, in harmony with the
natural world, a vision of societal perfection and the equality of color, gender, nationality, culture,
and faith—speaks volumes and manifests the “Alliance of the Arts under the Wing of Architecture,”
defeating dogmatic constraints.3 I perceive architecture as teamwork and as the whole greater than
the sum of its parts.
I see the tragedy of our discipline as adhering to marginalized chronologies and languages and
I recognize our mission to expand the map and reconstruct the truth about women’s equal contribu-
tion by uncovering veiled evidence of significant female presence, accomplishments, and leadership
in the profession.
The Spark
This volume was launched as an initiative branching out of my research project, “Life to Architec-
ture: Milka Bliznakov Academic Papers at the IAWA,” which in 2016 was awarded the new Blizna-
kov Scholar designation, established by the M. Bliznakov Research Prize Jury of the International
Archive of Women in Architecture Center at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University.4
A passionate advocate for the equal standing of professional women, Professor Milka T. Bliznakov
(1927–2010) remains a powerful inspiration: in 1985, she founded the International Archive of
Women in Architecture (IAWA), now the world’s largest thematic archive, facilitated in the Special
Collections division of the University Libraries at a major American university, with over 2,400
holdings from forty-seven countries, housing the legacies of more than 440 individuals, practices,
organizations, and exhibits, in seventeen languages, dating from the 1890s to the present. Through
the structured study of the files of Professor Bliznakov, an architect, teacher, and scholar with research
interests focused on Russian constructivism, I emphasized her legacy in the IAWA records of Rus-
sian women architects, which I have solicited annually for the archive since 2002 and which now
contain some thirty collections documenting women’s contributions to the built environment across
borders.5 She was involved in academic projects rooted in her life experiences, carried out in her
doctoral thesis at Columbia University in NYC and her engagement with the Institute of Modern
Russian Culture, now active in Los Angeles, CA.6
The report on the idea of launching a new collective publication as a general resource for a
Women in Architecture survey course was delivered to the IAWA Board at Virginia Tech and at the
IAWA Symposium in March of 2017 in celebration of Women’s History Month in the talk “We
Can Do It: The Mission of Milka Bliznakov” and has been encouraged as a vital contribution to the
IAWA mission. This spark grew into a powerful fire of evocations prompting new collaborations and
broadening professional networks.
A variety of chapters in the current book have effectively resourced the IAWA holdings: “Regard-
ing De Stijl Through a Gender Perspective: The Life and Work of Han Schröder” by Rixt Hoek-
stra, “Architect, Partner, Wife: Mid-Century Husband-and-Wife Partnerships” by Kate Reggev,
“Together Not Apart: Creating Constellations in Learning from an Archive” by Donna W. Dunay,
“Uncovering Her Archive: Ayla Karacabey in Postwar Architecture” by Meral Ekincioglu, “Expand-
ing the Legacy: The International Archive of Women in Architecture” by Paola Zellner, “Breaking
the Silence: Women in Russian Architecture” by Anna Sokolina, and “Reflections: Creating an

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
This volume would not have been possible without the memorable collaboration from my gracious
friend and colleague, the founder of the International Archive of Women in Architecture, Milka T.
Bliznakov, PhD, Professor Emerita at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, a vanguard
figure who remains an inspiration for women in architecture across the globe. With a remarkable
sense of humor and a talent for overcoming hardships, she was the soul of sisterhood and recogni-
tion. Now, forty-three envelopes containing numerous folders of our handwritten correspondence
and her hand-marked research materials, letters, and cards are preserved in the Milka T. Bliznakov
Papers and Architectural Drawings collection and in my architectural collection at Virginia Tech
University Libraries and Archives.
A large amount of work on this book has been accomplished during the critical time of a global
pandemic, witnessing personal heroism, political unrest, and the immense struggle for social justice.
Sincere thanks are due to our team of contributors who revised the traditional approach to research,
teaching, and practicing architecture and provided essential drafts over the timespan from early 2018
to late 2020. Two rounds of double-blind peer review as well as another review by the Routledge
Board of Editors backed the massive scope and the creative vision of this project; the contents and
structure have been revised several times responding to the requirements of our changing era. I am
indebted to Routledge Editors Krystal LaDuc Racaniello and Christine Bondira for their support
and guidance.
During my initial study generous assistance was provided by the staff of Virginia Tech Libraries
Special Collections: Dr. Aaron Purcell, Director of Special Collections; Samantha Winn, Collections
Archivist; and Kira A. Ditz, Acquisitions and Processing Archivist. I also owe a credit to the archivist
Jade Snelling, who supported us with publication permissions of rare images digitized and preserved
in Special Collections. With sincere thanks I recognize the architecture and urban design studio
moss::: in Chicago for providing permission to publish their creative graphics.

to provide feedback and become the first reviewers of this extensive publication proposal: Despina
Stratigakos, PhD, Professor of Architecture, University of Buffalo School of Architecture and Plan-
ning and author of Where Are the Women Architects? (2016); Lori A. Brown, AIA, Professor of Archi-
tecture, Syracuse University School of Architecture, Cofounder of ArchiteXX; Meredith Clausen,
PhD, Professor of Art History, University of Washington, Seattle; Gabrielle Esperdy, PhD, Professor
of Architecture, New Jersey Institute of Technology in Newark, Editor, SAH Archipedia; and Mary
McLeod, PhD, Professor of Architecture, Columbia University in the City of New York.
The urgency of this publication initiative became clear through the success of the Women in Archi-
tecture Wikipedia Edit-a-Thon project at the Guggenheim Museum in New York in 2017 as well as
during conferences of the Society of Architectural Historians over the last twenty years as interest
in the topic increased. It came to the forefront for me in correspondence with Wanda Bubriski,
Founding Director of the Beverly Willis Architecture Foundation, who at the BWAF meeting during
the 68th SAH Conference in Chicago in April of 2015 awarded me with the original DVD of the
acclaimed documentary written and directed by Beverly Willis and produced by BWAF, “A Girl Is
A Fellow Here”: Women Architects in the Studio of Frank Lloyd Wright, a film that illuminates the life
and work of Marion Mahony, Isabel Roberts, Lois Gottlieb, Jane Duncombe, Eleanore Pettersen,
and Read Weber.7
The collaboration with Beverly Willis, FAIA, added special merit to this volume, and I am thank-
ful to her for modeling great independence and furthering creativity and professional craft. My deep
respect goes as well to the architect Lois Davidson Gottlieb (1926–2018) for her presence in my life and
research and for our informal conversations about her professional and personal encounters in Milka
Bliznakov’s hospitable home during our stay for the IAWA Board Meetings, and to her daughter Karen
and son Mark Gottlieb, who introduced her legacy to audiences of all ages at Virginia Tech symposia.
I owe a debt of gratitude to the members of our Board of Chapter Editors who volunteered their
skill and talent to enhance the quality of our writings: Professors Christina Elizabeth Crawford,
PhD, Emory University; Rebecca Siefert, PhD, Governors State University; and Danielle S. Willk-
ens, PhD, Georgia Institute of Technology. Special appreciation goes to Professors Catherine R.
Ettinger, PhD, Universidad Michoacana de San Nicolás de Hidalgo, and Margaret Birney Vickery,
PhD, University of Massachusetts Amherst, for their valuable feedback and gracious commitment to
editing multiple scripts.
At the later stage of writing, important feedback has been provided by Professors Annmarie
Adams, PhD, Stevenson Chair in the History and Philosophy of Science, McGill University, Mon-
treal, Canada, and Alexandra Staub, PhD, Stuckeman School of Architecture and Landscape Archi-
tecture, College of Arts & Architecture, Penn State University.
My gratitude is extended to numerous talented colleagues who, during the work on this vol-
ume, helped build bridges of understanding across continents—the remarkable women and men of
architecture in Argentina, Canada, France, Germany, Israel, Mongolia, Russia, Spain, Switzerland,
Turkey, Ukraine, the United Kingdom, and the United States, and also to women innovators work-
ing in Africa, Latin America, and in multiple other regions not previously mentioned, including
the Balkans, Eastern Europe, and Southeast Asia. Being born, educated, and professionally active
in the largest cities of both the Eastern and Western Hemispheres and witnessing firsthand social and
political upheavals and morphing pyramids of dictatorships and ladders of democracies, I have had
the privilege of collaboration with magnificent role models who changed the culture of architecture

beyond borders—architects, scholars, educators, city planners, landscape architects, interior design-
ers, writers, activists, and authorities within and above the margins of the discipline of the built
environment who extended their support by fostering further developments stemming from this
publication project.
My sincere appreciation goes to Barbara Ann Opar, Architecture Librarian, Syracuse University
Library, with whom I have the privilege of co-chairing the SAH WiA AG Registers Committee.
A considerable part of the bibliography that accompanies the introduction to this volume is a prod-
uct of her contribution of time and talent to creating and maintaining, with her student assistant
Hannah Joelle Deichler, an inclusive list of publications on women in our profession.
Thanks to the remarkable generosity of many renowned and lesser-known museums, archives,
and individual collectors around the globe who preserved pivotal yet largely unexplored materials
on the subject, we have the rare opportunity to document this publication with images highlighting
historical evidence of women’s powerful contribution to shaping the built environment; all of them
are recognized and referenced by authors in every chapter, in notes and captions accompanying
illustrations, and in the illustrations list of this volume.
I would like to give my special thanks, limitless love, and appreciation to my family. From my
early years, I have been surrounded by a cohort of strong women, true role models: my mother,
Maria Efimovna Guz (née Mera Sokolina), a hardworking civil engineer and a kind, caring soul, and
my grandmother, Galina M. Sokolina, a photographer in her own right and a single mother who lost
her family property to Bolsheviks and her husband to war under the nazis’ siege of Leningrad and yet
brought up three children by strengthening family values and managing her photo studio. And to the
remarkable men who inspired me in more ways than one: my father, the aviation engineer Colonel
Peter Evseevich Guz, a war veteran and a devoted educator who dedicated his life to public service,
and my husband Yuriy Gmirya, a talented engineer with numerous patents, recognized executive
and lecturer, who at all times helped sustain my career and wholeheartedly aided with a variety of
technical inquiries on this scholarship.

Introduction
shaped built environments and architectural thought. Among the chapters presenting important
discoveries by authors preoccupied with relevant excavations of historical materials are “Consulting
and Curating the Modern Interior: The Work of Hilde Reiss, 1943–1946” by Erin McKellar, and
“Katherine Morrow Ford: Designs for Living” by Katherine Kaford Papineau.
Studies on the interconnections between architecture and art, landscape, and interior design as a
complex approach to the built environment are highlighted in the chapters “Nell Brooker Mayhew
and the Arts and Crafts Movement in America” by Brian Adams, “Eileen Gray: Invitation to an
Intellectual Journey” by Carmen Espegel, “Blocks Versus Knots: Bauhaus Women Weavers’ Contri-
bution to Architecture’s Canon” by Harriet Harriss, “ ‘Mrs. Meric Callery’” by Jan Frohburg, and
“ ‘Something More Solid and Massive’: The Architecture of Lauretta Vinciarelli” by Rebecca Siefert.
Established patriarchal settings are still with us, challenging the 2020 National Council of Archi-
tectural Registration Boards Report that affirms that in the US, improvements in licensure candi-
dates and new architects with greater diversity are more visible than ever.4 Interactive connections
based on national and international networks help to disseminate global data on women’s professional
achievements.5 The aspiration of our publication is to contribute to a dialogue that calls for transpar-
ency and explores networks of women that play a role in the process of change. In this volume the
networking is addressed and expanded through the analysis of women’s narratives in the discipline.
We uncover the life and work of women from Austria, England, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, the
Netherlands, Switzerland, and other European countries. The specific networks and practices that
provide women with opportunities to prosper, create, and compete with others are illuminated in
several chapters, among them: “ ‘This is Not a Success Story’: Florence Fulton Hobson, Architect in
Northern Ireland” by Tanja Poppelreuter, “Regarding De Stijl Through a Gender Perspective: The
Life and Work of Han Schröder” by Rixt Hoekstra, “More Than Shelter: Olive Tjaden’s Suburban
Projects in New York and Florida” by Millicent Danziger Vollono and Lauren Vollono Drapala, and
“Flora Ruchat-Roncati and the ‘Will to Keep Working’” by Irina Davidovici and Katia Frey.
We aim at an inclusive, interdisciplinary approach to the subject by introducing studies in a
broader variety of areas of the built environment. The following chapters bring to light the work
of women in landscape architecture, urban design, and city planning: “Reclaiming the Work of
Women Architects in Mandatory Palestine” by Sigal Davidi, “Together Not Apart: Creating Con-
stellations in Learning from an Archive” by Donna W. Dunay, “Uncovering Her Archive: Ayla Kara-
cabey in Postwar Architecture” by Meral Ekincioglu, and “Reflections: Creating an Architectural
Practice” by Diane Elliott Gayer.
Our discipline is in urgent need of examination in light of global transitions. A transnational
inquiry can help avoid negative confrontations. For instance, the debates on architecture of select
non-Western regions—that is, of African, South American, Central and Eastern European, or
Central and Eastern Asian topographies—still remain scarce. Also, arguably for reasons other than
scholarship, we lack studies on architecture in Russia, a country which covers the Eurasian terrain
two-and-a-half times the size of the US, where, since the second half of the twentieth century,
the workforce in many fields of the built environment has been largely female. In particular,
women dominate older demographics due to the considerable extinction of men to warfare—
over 25 million dead during World War II, most of them male. Yet the profession there is ruled
primarily by men.
While the world is divided, polarizations lead to the lack of visibility, transparency, and mutual
understanding across cultures, societies, and geographies. By simultaneously illuminating overlooked
networks and reviewing the fabric of world histories, the contribution of women to architecture
can be revealed and integrated into the primary stream. We have sourced a wide range of studies
and have unearthed some real gems. The chapters in our volume have brought about new questions,
such as what was happening in other localities and cultures, and what was the nature of sociopolitical
transformations that might have involved change?
3
Anna Sokolina
We leave out the narratives focused in particular on the feminist movement, or those preoccupied
with compare-contrast investigations of male vs. female proficiencies. Topics of that nature may be
the subject matter of another discipline. Our book has been envisioned as an architecture history
resource, integrating discoveries that mine substantial layers of data still hidden in the archives and
broaden the geographic horizons of learning.
[the] lack of gender parity in architecture and interior design reading lists highlight the
extent to which inequalities in the profession are being sustained and maintained by schools
of architecture—both in terms of their staffing profiles and their curricula content [,]
and that academic reading lists “are largely dominated by male writers, leading them to assume
that the key voices of authority within the discipline of architecture are male.”6 She emphasized
that “although one in three architectural educators in the UK are women, only 2.5 percent of UK
architecture faculty is female at Dean level.” While teaching at the Royal College of Art in London,
she composed a list seeking to “address the problem by featuring women writers in architecture”
across architecture-related subject areas to “not only encourage more female students to feel equally
represented within the profession,” but also to “encourage more of them to enter academia.”7 This
declaration of equal standing responds to the inquiry recognized in the UK by The Bartlett School
of Architecture at University College London, The Royal College of Art, The Royal Institute of the
Architects of Ireland, The Society of Architectural Historian of Great Britain, et al.; in the United
States by the majority of architecture schools; and by the growing number of educational and aca-
demic centers worldwide with an English-speaking student pool.
Our volume is envisioned as a catalyst for new programs; a general resource; and a foundation
for new cross-disciplinary surveys, courses, and modules on the subject. Our aspiration is to offer
arguments and full discursive chapters, not just brief profiles of women who have made contribu-
tions, and to empower new generations. We advocate change by featuring diverse role models
whose contributions to the built environment would encourage and inspire students, academia, and
a broader audience.
Structural Core
The contents of the book are organized in chronological order and are logistically structured to
guide the reader and outline the stages of the evolution and the expanding scale of women’s engage-
ment in the field. The framework of thematic threads ties the parts of the volume into a consistent
whole. The book begins with the dedication, precis, list of illustrations, contributors’ biographies,
preface, and acknowledgments and concludes with an index.
All chapters display a clearly defined narrative and a sound potential for inspiration. Chapters
are intertwined through their objectives and the novelty of research and are structured based on
a threefold grid, which implies an introduction, main part, and conclusion, accompanied with a
bibliography, detailed notes, and original illustrations with captions referring to the authenticity and
provenance of images. Archival research provides rare information on the context of reading. Col-
lected data is correlated to shape a significant cohort of women, their aspirations, and their impact
on the culture and the future of the built environment.
4
Introduction
The core of the volume comprises five parts: I. Women in the Early Profession and Leadership:
Preindustrial Age to Early Twentieth Century. From Domestic Realms Into Public Life and Culture; II.
Women in the Modern Movement: The First Half of the Twentieth Century. The Limits of Engage-
ment in the Architectural Profession and the Agenda of “Modern” Work; III. Women in the Context
of Mid-Century Modernism. Mainstream Practice Formations, Public Engagement, and Women’s Wider
Agency in the Field; IV. Women in Architecture of the Late Twentieth Century. Architectural Work and
Urban Planning: Drawing, Building, Educating, Archiving; V. Women in Architecture: From the 1960s
to the Present. Breaking the Glass Ceiling.
Each chapter can stand on its own and presents authoritative overviews of significant topics:
the stories and images in these pages reflect the vibrancy and resiliency of talented women. The
chapters reveal the commitment of the authors to illuminating broader topographies that advocate a
forthright take on portraits of practicing architects, outstanding leaders, teachers, writers, critics, and
other kinds of protagonists in the built environment.
The proposed margins, as in any theoretical assumption, are schematic and engage overlaps of
timeframes and territories. Historical topographies studied by the authors are informed by the earli-
est available references, from the preindustrial age to the present. Commissioned internationally, the
carefully selected collection of chapters creates a cohesive read and presents our constantly expand-
ing field. The gap is bridged between the impressive yet largely incomplete mosaic readings, the
important yet split insights into individual powerful narratives, and the in-depth yet divided studies
of regional vistas.
5
Anna Sokolina
We aim at a different approach: this anthology is instrumental firsthand for the discipline of
architecture. Our objectives reflect on the practical need for a new architectural history book as a
resource for more inclusive readings justified through the lens of equity and historical fairness. From
the preindustrial age to the present, a wider and deeper coverage is provided of women’s diverse
contributions to the built environment of a range of European countries, as well as the United
States, Hawaii, Japan, Mongolia, and Rwanda in Africa. Regional voices broaden the international
panorama—from Israel, studying the architecture of Palestine under the British Mandate; to Russia,
featuring women’s work starting from the 1920s to the present; to Turkey, comparing and contrast-
ing professional settings for women in the Republic of Turkey and the United States in the period
of the 1950s–1970s; to Ireland, investigating the life and career of a woman architect seeking her
independent identity within national contexts during a time of change; and many others.
Geographic Appeal
Geographic appeal to North American, European, and, inclusively, Australian readership reflects
on women’s struggle to rise to leadership positions.11 Due to the fact that professional achievements
of women are underrepresented in architecture textbooks, the historical role models for women
are largely missing in the curricula of architecture schools offering a limited number of courses on
the subject in the US and Western Europe. These classes are being taught, for instance, at ETH in
Zürich, Switzerland; at the Architectural Association School of Architecture; and at the School of
Architecture of Royal College of Art in London, UK. In the US, courses are increasingly offered at
UMass Amherst, the Pratt Institute in NYC, Virginia Tech, and Amherst College, among others.
The growing number of modules and classes are in urgent need of an architectural history book
such as ours.
With this publication, we also hope to open up teaching opportunities on the subject in schools
and universities in emerging regions of the Middle East, Central and East Asia, the Pacific Islands,
South Africa, and the countries of Latin America, while the enrollment of women in professional
architecture and liberal arts schools in some of those areas is staggering, and the need for role models
of all scales and ranges, as presented in our volume, is evident. We hope that this book will stimulate
a greater and more consistent interest and secure a broader knowledge base.
A revision of history has been endeavored in Canada, in part by Building Equality in Architecture
(BEA Toronto), which hosted a series of virtual events including the program “For Her Record:
Notes on the Work of Blanche Lemco van Ginkel” in collaboration with the Daniels Faculty of
Architecture, Landscape, and Design at University of Toronto and the Peter Guo-hua Fu School
of Architecture at McGill University.12 One of the arguments presented there by Annmarie Adams
and Peta Tancred revealed that the scene in Eastern Europe opened the gates for Canadian women
architects. This argument has never been made for the US.
In fact, the concept of gender equality had been originally introduced to the Eastern Bloc by the
Soviet Union. The 1917 socialist revolution in Russia emancipated women: they gained equal civil
rights, including free education and medical care, and from the mid-1930s until the end of social-
ism in 1991, they were required to work full-time next to their male counterparts. Over the second
half of the twentieth century, professional women in the USSR outnumbered men, also due to the
loss of the male population to warfare. On the one hand, the postwar scene across Eastern Europe
was the subject of the state’s interference. Architectural education, city planning, and all areas of
design signaled an intimate collaboration between the Eastern European governments and Soviet
authorities.13 On the other hand, women’s prevalence there turned into a lasting phenomenon. Dur-
ing the Cold War era, depending on the political momentum, the Iron Curtain would sometimes
recourse to limited cooperation with the West. After the collapse of socialism in the Soviet Union,
the Eastern Bloc fell apart, the window to the West reopened, and the waves of emigration from

communal terrains brought many trained female professionals to North America. Simultaneously, a
strong argument of reforming socialist economies geared a new East-West professional exchange. It
also raised women’s awareness of professional equality and fostered women’s networks and leadership
across borders.

and maintaining, with her students, a catalogue of publications on women in our profession
across time and place.
I believe that an inclusive, integral approach to history that follows the evolutionary stages of
women’s professional engagement is essential, as it has been presented in our book. Several forth-
coming publications respond to the urgency of uncovering extensive vistas by numbers.21 That
activity confirms the importance of the volume in our format, providing deeper interconnected
insights into the contribution of women to the built environment across borders.

Maggie Toy, ed., The Architect: Women in Contemporary Architecture (New York: Watson-Guptill, 2001).
This volume introduces thirty-three contemporary women architects by presenting a photograph, a per-
sonal statement and professional history, a firm profile, and illustrated projects. A celebratory approach and
significant temporal and regional constraints are apparent.
Cheris Kramarae and Dale Spender, eds, Routledge International Encyclopedia of Women: Global Women’s
Issues and Knowledge (New York: Routledge, 2000). This interdisciplinary publication identifies women’s
issues on the global scale and catalogues data on pioneers in the field of women’s studies.
Jane Rendell, Barbara Penner, and Iain Borden, eds, Gender Space Architecture: An Interdisciplinary Introduc-
tion (London: Routledge, 1999). This volume provides an overview of the relationships between gender,
space, and architectural theory composed by interdisciplinary scholars. Informed by use of varied interdis-
ciplinary methodologies, it can be assessed today as an introductory reading resource.
Ellen Perry Berkeley and Matilda McQuaid, eds, Architecture: A Place for Women (Washington, DC:
Smithsonian, 1989). The volume examines the achievements of women in the field of architecture of the
twentieth century yet is limited to presenting architects from the US and Western Europe only, lacking
broader international reflections.
20. Rare examples:
Tanja Kullack, ed., Architecture: A Woman’s Profession (Berlin: Jovis, 2011). In this edition, American and
European architects Barbara Bestor, Caroline Bos, Alison Brooks, and Jeanne Gang discuss their experi-
ences and their visions for the future of the profession.
Despina Stratigakos, Where Are the Women Architects? (Places Books and Princeton University Press,
2016). This compact reading presents an insight into the status of women in architecture informed by the
glass ceiling in the profession, stresses the rise of new advocacy, and explores opportunities for change.
21. Examples:
Lori A. Brown and Karen Burns, eds, Bloomsbury Global Encyclopedia of Women in Architecture 1960–2015
(London: Bloomsbury, forthcoming). This publication comprises numerous introductory records and con-
tains short (60–200 words: 40 percent of the volume), medium (200–500 words: 40 percent), and longer
(1000–2000 words: 20 percent) entries.
Marcia F. Feuerstein, Jodi La Coe, and Paola Zellner, Expanding Field: Women in Architecture, Forty Pro-
jects Across the Globe (London: Lund Humphries, forthcoming). The book provides information on select
designs by women.
