WOMEN IN CONTEMPORARY ARCHITECTURE The gender issues surrounding architecture are extraordinarily complex and, frequently, highly emotionally charged.

All want their work to be read on its own merits.

Asia's newest high-tech airport reaches out from a man-made land bridge between two islands in the Yellow Sea. Incheon will make Seoul a new rival to Hong Kong and Osaka as gateway to the East.
