So cool! Two events celebrating the life and architecture of Lois Lilley Howe in Cambridge. She was one of the first women to graduate from Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s architectural program https://t.co/9I8iivsPg8

Some research for article about Women, Gender & Arch: Licensure takes on average 12.8 yrs, whereas Law is 4 & Medicine is 7-11. YET median salary for an Architect (2018) was $79,380, which is 65% of a Lawyer’s and 40% of a Physician’s. @WIDBoston @LianChikako @jdonoho @WID_GSD

Ew Ick Wow thanks for this. It’s like Scott Brown and Venturi’s magnificent Learning from Levittown. Also reminds me of “Fast Casual Urbanism” coined @kristoncapps and fellow @LoebFellowship @IngaSaffron
in 1994, david dillon catalogued the design crimes of the "north dallas special," aka the mcmansion. to celebrate a new collection of his writing, we've illustrated the crimes of the mcmansion's successor, what we're calling the "uptown special." https://t.co/kfcb6mJ5wP

@Oracle @CarrefourGroup @eBay @elcorteingles @lyst @Holition @AlibabaTalk Diversity is a value proposition. The more you reflect the societies you serve, the more relevant and profitable. In Architecture, our events are every year more inclusive, featuring diversity among keynotes and panelists. It can be done now- join us! @RBEWC @katgordon

Thanks for calling ‘em out. This was my Princeton reading list in Arch theory like SO 17 years ago.
and there's one book written by a woman on here, of course it's about interior design... what about denise scott brown's "learning form las vegas?" what about ada louise huxtable's "on architecture"? @EquityxDesign what other books can we think of?

Check it! All 173 entries to int’l DESIGN COMPETITION for Annex to Saarinen building. The museum is at heart of the Finnish people and society- yet how do we define this? The Annex carries a 50 million euro budget.

Next step towards equality—women architects will be interviewed on a range of subjects- soft, theoretical to tectonics- not a gendered perspective. You don’t see headlines about what it’s like to be a Male Architect. #timeforequality #timefor50 @ArchitectsVow @francescaperani

Question! Panel at Copenhagen Architecture Festival discusses Bauhaus @ 100 yrs thru: 1/Freedom 2/ Equality, 3/Discrimination. To what extent are concepts relevant to Bauhaus? GROPIUS didn't allow women to study arch. Ouch! What about contemporary practice?
