 BREIF ABOUT HER

The Iraqi-born British architect is known for being a

rare woman on a male-dominated podium. Her
public buildings are often described as dynamic, as if
they're a freeze-frame of an action shot. Zaha Hadid's
style embraces striking lines, sometimes bold with
expressive curves; other times brutalist in essence.
Architecture, she claimed, "must contribute to
society's progress and ultimately to our individual
and collective wellbeing." The buildings born of her
vision and the collective genius of her firm Zaha
Hadid Architects, may sometimes seem fantastical,
triumphant and even a bit loud, but they all stem
from architecture’s base function – to facilitate and
even perform everyday life.
