Lux Guyer (1894–1955) – the first female architect in Switzerland – planned and realised the exhibition city for SAFFA 1928, the first Swiss exhibition for women’s work. The publication pays tribute to the architecture of this pioneering work, records the background to its creation and is a report of the exemplary restoration by Beate Schnitter.
