Architecture, as a discipline and a profession, is grappling with a multitude of crises that have yet to be effectively addressed. The fundamental premise of the Cosmowomen project is that the full integration of women into the field of architecture would create novel avenues for thought and attention among professionals, while also consolidating and expanding existing ones. This process would result in the formation of a constellation of these "places of thought," fostering intense relationships among them.

The exhibition showcases the work of 65 women architects who have completed the Master's degree program at the Bartlett School of Architecture in the past decade. These architects have presented a total of 71 projects, accompanied by 283 images. The architects hail from over 20 different nationalities, and have been mentored by 22 tutors, 50% of whom are women, with diverse backgrounds in cultural terms and professional experience.

The exhibition catalogue features contributions from 20 women architects or professionals in related fields, all of whom have achieved exceptional academic achievements. These texts provide valuable insights into the perspectives and experiences of these architects.
