An Exhibition of Bold Voices, Inspired Spaces, and Enduring Vision
Washington DC. September 2026
benton buckley books unveils a special edition of its New View series with Women of Architecture: a collective of unique voices — celebrating groundbreaking and thoughtful designs that shape everyday life and the importance of the way people live, gather, and thrive.
Women of Architecture celebrates the vision, influence, and enduring contributions of twenty-five exceptional female architects who are shaping the built environment today. Through a curated collection of remarkable residential projects and personal design philosophies, this title explores how these women are redefining architecture with creativity and innovation. Each featured architect reveals how ingenuity, intellect, and purpose converge to create spaces that are both profoundly personal and universally inspiring.
More than a showcase of beautiful residences and architectural achievements, Women of Architecture is a tribute to leadership, legacy, and the powerful role women play in creating spaces that enrich how we live, connect, and experience the world.
Presented by acclaimed Beth Buckley, Founder and Creative Director of benton buckley books, this volume serves as a visual gallery of the extraordinary work of women, revealing architecture as more than structure — it is an expression of culture, emotion, and the human experience.
In her evocative foreword, architect Sussan Lari reflects on how a home is more than a building - it is a place where we should consider how we gather and how we live. She reminds us that the remarkable women architects featured in this book show us how a home deserves to be imagined, bringing an understanding that a home is a place of nurture. As women are still underrepresented in the field of architecture, these architects are not only visionary but resilient as well. Lari states, “When women shape our homes, they also help shape a future where architecture begins with humanity.”
Within its 376 pages and through stunning photography and thoughtful editorial, readers are invited beyond the blueprints to discover the philosophies, inspirations, and stories behind the work.
In these pages, you will meet Lauren Adams, Amy Alper, Julia Arria, Maura Fernández Abernethy, Laura Juarez Baggett, Kristen Becker, Katherine Chia, Lise de Vito, Bibiana Dykema, Gale Goff, Laura Huylebroeck, Sussan Lari, Rebecca Lazenby, Annie Lo, Antonina Markoff, Marica McKeel, Kelly Murdock Solon, Joyce Owens, Anik Pearson, Julia Sanford, Mary Ann Gabriele Schicketanz, Ashley Sullivan, Andrea Swan, Michele Thackrah, and Nancy S. Weinman.
More than a book, Women of Architecture is a lasting tribute to leadership, artistry, and the women whose designs are transforming the way we live, connect, and experience the world.
Women of Architecture: a collective of unique voices will be available through booksellers nationwide on September 4, 2026, and is now available for pre-order.
