The article represents a review of Draginja Petrovic - Petkovic's architectural work, which was hardly known until today. Draginja Petrovic - Petkovic used to work for almost all important architectural bureaus in the period between the two World Wars. Following the chronology of her professional and private life, one can realize in a completely new way difficult cultural and social circumstances under which the women architects had to work back then, as well as the very importance of their choice to make a personal mark in the scope of a typical "men's" profession in an old - fashioned world of that period.
