Imagine a built environment shaped entirely by a complete, unedited history of design, where the brilliant innovations of marginalized visionaries actively inform the future of housing.

The story of residential architecture contains a wealth of transformative strategies developed by women whose profound contributions have historically been omitted from the design canon. This exclusive Gābl Media All-Access Series panel brings together dynamic architectural historians and preservation experts to uncover these vital narratives, illuminating their direct impact on contemporary housing solutions. You will gain unparalleled access to the powerful intersection of equity, architectural preservation, and urban planning, empowering you to integrate these foundational legacies into highly effective modern design.

Lesson Description:

This panel discussion brings together the hosts of She Builds Podcast and architectural historian Kate Reggev to examine the overlooked legacy of women in residential design and construction—and why it matters today. From early neighborhood planning to affordable housing innovation, women have long shaped the built environment, yet their contributions have been largely erased from the narrative. This conversation will explore how that absence has impacted design standards, housing policy, and architectural education—and how reclaiming that history can inform more equitable, effective solutions going forward. Join us for a timely and thought-provoking discussion on visibility, preservation, and the future of housing through a more inclusive lens.
