Making Space is a pioneering work first published in 1984 which
challenges us to look at how the built environment impacts on
women's lives. It exposes the sexist assumptions on gender and
sexuality that have a fundamental impact on the way buildings are
designed and our cities are planned. Written collaboratively by the
feminist collective Matrix, tthe book provide a full blown critique
of the patriarchal built environment both in the home and in public
space, and outline alternative forms of practice that are still
relevant today. Making Space remains a path breaking book pointing
to possibilities of a feminist future. Some authors worked for the
London-based Matrix Feminist Architect's collective, an
architectural practice set up in 1980 seeking to establish a
feminist approach to design. They worked on design projects - such
as community, children and women's centres. Others were engaged in
building work, teaching and research. The new edition comes with a
new introduction examining the context, process and legacy of
Making Space written by leading feminists in architecture.
