29% Equal in conversation with Part W, Episode 05: Parlour & Zoë Berman.
Hosted & produced by Sarah Ackland

In this episode, Zoë Berman, Founder and Co-Director of Part W Collective and the Founding Director of Studio Berman, speaks with the groundbreaking Justine Clark and Naomi Stead the President and Vice-President of the Australian-based Parlour. Parlour is a group whose name derives from a rather subversive feminist take on the 'parlour' as the room in a house traditionally used for receiving and conversing with visitors. In this episode, they discuss with how the organisation grew from a research project and worked tirelessly to prove that women’s inability to stay in the profession was not their fault. We discuss how campaign groups can work together and reflect on Parlour's impressive journey. From hanging out and data collection to the creation of the ‘parlour guides’ a must-read for all those hoping to support diversity; these women have paved the way for change for women in architecture.
