Distilled in this volume is a palpable sense of women at work in architecture, of the joys and challenges of a creative profession and the culture of making.Common themes and questions run across the volume to reveal commonalities and differences. We hear varied views on education, craft and technology; on collaboration and inventive processes; on formative influences and entrepreneurship; and, on the relationship between architecture and society.
