Book Synopsis

Not enough research has been conducted on the pioneering work of Austria’s female architects and, as a result, many of them remain in relative obsurity. Most were members of ZV Österreich, until 1959 Austria’s main guild of freelance architects. It is therefore worthwhile delving into the archives of the ZV. This publication is dedicated to these women, documents their names, and presents their lives and careers as examples. The international work of these women ranges from homes to churches and factories, interior design and urban planning, and even extends to the construction of power plants.

  • Documents the exciting careers of Vienna’s women architects between 1938 and 1959
  • Educational paths, professional practice, historical backgrounds, and contexts
  • With exceptional essays by renowned experts
