Lisbeth Sachs (1914–2002) made history as one of Switzerland's first independent female architects. Her breakthrough came in 1939 when she won the competition for the Kurtheater Baden. Completed in 1952, this building expressed her experience as a pioneering woman in a male-dominated profession. For Sachs, construction was a holistic process spanning craftsmanship, material consideration, and people’s appropriation of a space. This first English translation of Rahel Hartmann Schweizer's study presents Sachs as both critical writer and architect, examining her work bridging post-war tradition and utopian vision. German only.
