Making Space - Interior Design By Women - Jane Hall

. .

Résumé :
Making Space celebrates the work of the most creative women designing interiors from the beginning of the twentieth century to today. The history of women's involvement in interior design is rich and varied. It is an industry in which women enjoy an equal standing with their male counterparts, yet it is typically framed as a practice especially suited to women, secondary to the heroic role of architect or furniture designer. This inspiring book explores how 250 amazing women - the well-known to the emerging, and from 50 countries - have shaped the built environment beyond the confines of the home and explores their careers as true tastemakers of the twentieth and twenty-first century.
