Non Architectural Work
Bachelor of Arts 1970, Bachelor of Architecture 1983 (Auckland).
I was a founder member of the Auckland WIA group in 1979 and have commented about that recently on A+W.
My architecture thesis "A Woman-Environment Study" is lodged in the School of Architecture Library, University of Auckland. It explores the physical environment in relation to women, and how sexist attitudes and gender roles affect our use of space. It is interesting to reflect on what has changed since that time, and what is still relevant now.
