NOT JUST A NUMBERS GAME

Statistics relating to women in architecture provide very unfavourable outcomes…….

However, interviewing female architects resulted in a positive view of the industry…….

and progressive statistics convey that it’s perhaps not such a grim picture……..

Male architects were also interviewed for their perspectives as to why there are so few female directors in Perth……..
