Female AIA Young Architects Winners Weigh in on Architect Barbie

Earlier this week, we reported that after nearly a decade of attempts, there is finally going be an Architect Barbie. While through a wider lens, it isn’t perhaps Barbie Betty Friedan, it’s certainly better than some of the other picks from years past in Mattel‘s annual “I Can Be” competition for the famous doll (we’re looking at you Dolphin Trainer Barbie — not that dolphin training isn’t important or empowering). Judging from the reaction our post received, it appears that many of you agree.
