Ms. The Architect

Two architectural historians, Catja Edens and Charlotte Thomas, consider the role of women in architectural history. Eva James observes that, as yet, the female gaze is almost never included in the design of public space. Sandra Schuster initiated a one-year study on "Women in Architecture" at the Faculty of Architecture of the Technical University of Munich. Wiegert Ambagts and Kaj van Boheemen write an essay on the fact that architecture is too often valued by attributes such as: rational, strong, robust, colorless, immutable, non-decorative, etcetera. Tim de Boer interviews agency owners, Arna Mačkić and Lorien Beijaert (Studio LA), Irma van Oort (KCAP) and Jurriaan van Stigt (LEVS) about their inclusive business practices. To what extent is there room for difference on the shop floor? And how do they deal with construction, which is also dominated by white males? Anne Dessing creates an image column, an ode to the work of Lina Bo Bardi. Last but not least, the male perspective on the theme of women in architecture is also addressed in columns written by Floris Alkemade, Hans van der Heijden, Francesco Veenstra, Jan Knikker and Peter Drijver.
