Your best traits are your organisational skills and ability to encourage and lead others.

Lady Elizabeth Wilbraham was an architectural patron in England and possibly the anonymous architect of the famous Wotton House in Buckinghamshire.

Your work doesn't go unnoticed though and you are well respected in your field. Your modesty and drive are your best traits!

Louise Blanchard Bethune was the first American woman known to have worked as a professional architect. Like her, you are a trailblazer.

Your best traits are your curiosity and your adventurous spirit.

Signe Hornborg graduated from Helsinki Polytechnic "by special permission" in 1890 to become the first female architecture graduate in the world.

Your intellect and studious nature are your best traits!

Marion Mahony Griffin was the first employeed of the famous American architect, Frank Lloyd Wright, having studied at MIT. Like Marion, you are logical and scientific in your approach to work.
