Analyzing a range of ideas from biological, evolutionary and anthropological theories to a variety of feminist, psychoanalytic, poststructuralist and constructivist discourses, this book provides a comprehensive introduction to the problematics of gender and power in architectural and urban design. Topics range from conceptions of postulated matriarchal architecture in Old Europe to contemporary technologies of control; from the mechanisms of gaze to architectural performatives; from the under-representation of women in the planning profession to the integration of gender issues to t

'Women in Architecture' sheds light on how women in all their different roles contribute to architecture, from the past to the present. Despite the essential and varied contributions of women, the narrative surrounding architecture remains deeply rooted in masculinity. Nonetheless, women have played crucial roles throughout architectural history. This publication sheds light on the reasons behind the absence of women in archives and publications, and how that exclusion continues to perpetuate the invisibility of women in architecture today. By bringing together these stories, the publication adds a crucial chapter to the history of architecture in the Netherlands and advocates for greater diversity in the current architectural discourse.²

"Journalist Aline B. Louchheim was associate art critic for the New York Times when she first met architect Eero Saarinen (1910-61), the great modern architect who would go on to become designer of the St. Louis Arch, the TWA Terminal at JFK Airport, and Washington Dulles International Airport. One year later, Aline became Eero's second wife and a key actor in his rise to critical prominence. In When Eero Met His Match, Eva Hagberg examines the role of public relations in the field of architecture through two narrative strands: a study of the career, life, and impact of Aline Saarinen, and a personal account of the author's time working in public relations for architects. This unusually creative work combines in-depth archival research with a critique of current practices in architectural journalism, shedding new light on the fascinating, untold history of Aline Saarinen, as well as a contemporary reality within the discipline. Through these lenses, Hagberg investigates the role of media and communication in architecture, revealing how architects' often invisible partners in the allied arts-often women such as Aline-were integral to the careers and narratives of prominent figures such as Eero. Bringing this history up to the present day by interweaving it with her own story, Hagberg shows why these stories matters now more than ever".

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.

Much of feminist architectural scholarship focuses on the enormous task of instating women's experience of space into spatial praxis. This book suggests this attention to women's invisibility in socio-cultural space has overlooked the complex ways in which women already occupy space, albeit mostly as an image or object to be consumed, even purchased. Hypersexual City examines the occupation of urban space through the mediated representation of women's hypersexualized bodies. A complex transaction proliferates in the commercial urban space of cities and Hypersexual City seeks to address the cause and consequence of the increasing dominance of gendered representation. This book uses architectural case studies and analysis to make visible the sexual politics of architecture and urbanism and, in doing so, reveal the ways that heterosexist culture shapes the spaces, behaviour and relationships formed in neoliberal cities. Kalms announces how examining urbanism that operates through, and is framed by, sexual culture can demonstrate that architecture does not merely find itself adrift in the hypersexualized landscape of contemporary cities, but is actively producing and contributing to the sexual regulation of urban life.
