“100 Women to Watch in Architecture

Architizer presents one of the most extensive collections to date of innovative women in architecture, each of whom is helping to shape the future of the built environment.

“The future of architecture is female. That’s what last year’s A+Awards taught us, with more women than ever leading teams in conceptualizing, designing and delivering some of the world’s best architecture around the globe. Women were the creative force behind dozens of winning projects, from B.L.U.E. Architecture Studio’s Yoko Fujii and Apparatus Architects’ Gabriella Gamma to KIENTRUC O’s Anni Le and Formafatal’s Dagmar Štěpánová.

For the 9th Annual A+Awards — currently accepting submissions with a Main Entry Deadline of March 12th — there is also a growing number of pioneering women on the program’s preeminent jury, setting up a refreshing prospect: Many of this year’s A+Award-winning projects will be designed by women, and rewarded by women, too.
