Women of Architecture

Throughout history, architecture has spoken — shaping society, holding memory, imagining the future. Yet too often, the female voice behind that speech has been softened, its echoes diminished. Women of Architecture: a collective of unique voices, a special edition of the New View series, seeks not to shout, but to speak — clearly, boldly, and with grace. This landmark volume honors twenty five leading women architects whose work is as deeply intelligent as it is beautifully human. Their projects reveal not only where we live, but how we live — and why it matters. In these pages, you will meet Lauren Adams, Amy Alper, Julia Arria, Maura Ferná ndez Abernethy, Laura Juarez Baggett, Kristen Becker, Katherine Chia, Lise de Vito, Bibiana Dykema, Gale Goff, Laura Huylebroeck, Sussan Lari, Rebecca Lazenby, Annie Lo, Antonina Markoff, Marica McKeel, Kelly Murdock Solon, Joyce Owens, Anik Pearson, Julia Sanford, Mary Ann Gabriele Schicketanz, Ashley Sullivan, Andrea Swan, Michele Thackrah, and Nancy S. Weinman — women who, with every line and light-filled space, reveal a new vernacular of beauty.
