| Opplysninger | Originaltittel: Ufortalte historier. - Utgitt i forbindelse med prosjektet: Kvinder i Dansk Arkitektur 1925-1975. - Innhold: On writing a new history of architecture ; Where are the women in Danish architectural history? ; Visions - a revolution in the kitchen ; Love - three houses built for women's work, family and love lives ; Growth - stories of a more caring approach to urban planning ; Alternatives - a new architecture for a new society ; Collaboration - a story about how architecture comes into being ; Feminist architects who wanted to change the world. - This book tells a new story about twentieth-century architecture in Denmark. For the first time ever, readers get an overall picture of the key contribution made by women to the architecture of Danish welfare society in the period 1930–1980. The book’s five chapters present hitherto untold stories about how architecture comes into being through creative collaborations that cut across genders and professional disciplines. Women have contributed to all aspects of architecture, from kitchens and buildings to landscape architecture and urban planning, and their stories highlight the hidden diversity that has shaped Denmark’s buildings, cities and landscapes. The importance of this diversity must be understood and appreciated in the present if we are to create new ways of living and building in the future – a pressing need in light of the many crises we face as a society today.
