Architecture+Design Film Festival: Making Space: 5 Women Changing the Face of Architecture

Thu, Apr 14 / 7 pm
Directed by Ultan Guilfoyle
2014, USA, 50 min

Panel Discussion to the film

For the first time in history, women are designing our world. They are rising stars in architecture—previously an all-male galaxy—and they are literally and figuratively changing the landscape. This film captures the compelling stories and outstanding designs of Annabelle Selldorf (NYC), Farshid Moussavi (London & Boston), Odile Decq (Paris), Marianne McKenna (of KPMB, in Toronto), and landscape architect, Kathryn Gustafson (Seattle & London). Without script or narration, each woman tells her own story, enhanced by the insights of commentators including Pulitzer Prize-winning architecture critic Paul Goldberger; MoMA’s Peter Reed and Paola Antonelli; and others. Meryl Streep makes a special guest appearance. — Janice Stanton, Producer

Reviews

After interviewing over 30 architects, Alice Shure and Janice Stanton selected five women… The documentary will show their day-to-day lives as well as tell the stories of how they achieved success. — Pola Mora, archdaily Nothing is impossible. So we have to think like that to push further the lines, and the horizon. — Odile Decq, architect
