List of works by Julia Morgan

Julia Morgan graduated as the first woman to earn a degree from the École nationale supérieure des beaux-arts in Paris and then became the first women to be licensed as an architect in California.^[1][2][3] With these credentials, she completed over 700 projects in her career^[3][4] which expressed a distinctly Californian architecture.^[1][5]

Julia Morgan in 1926

Some of her early commissions involved rebuilding after the 1906 San Francisco earthquake based on her engineering expertise in utilizing reinforced concrete.^[6][7] Later in her career, both the Hearst publishing family and the Young Women's Christian Association (YWCA) employed Morgan as their primary architect.^[2][7][8] She also designed a number of women's clubs^[7][8] and private homes.^[5][9]

Morgan did not follow a consistent school of architecture,^[1][2] often synthesizing various combinations of Arts & Crafts, Beaux-Arts, Gothic Revival, Mediterranean Revival, Neoclassical, and Spanish Colonial Revival styles.^[4][10][11] By the time she retired in 1951, her eclectic architecture had fallen out of style and was poorly regarded but the assessment of her legacy gradually improved over time.^[4][3][11] In 2014, Morgan became the first women to receive the American Institute of Architects' Gold Medal, 57 years after her death.^[8][12][13]
