It's abundantly clear that her family supported her dreams, aspirations and imagination, nurturing her and giving her the space to breathe and create. I'm sad and disappointed that I've never heard of Zaha Hadid, who is a contemporary and fire architect whose identities include being female, Muslim, and from Iraq and Britain.Zaha Hadid was a revolutionary architect, who for many years built almost nothing, despite winning critical acclaim. This comprehensive survey of over two hundred projects—from her earliest experimentations to product design, from speculative follies to large-scale built works—is a testament to the depth, range, and inventiveness of her vision. See our Remarkables Archive list for what is no longer in print, but which we are happy to track down. Meet three inspirational women from the world of science: Ada Lovelace, Amelia Earhart, and Marie Curie!

He has taught architectural theory and design at the Knowlton School of Architecture and Otis College of Design.

After founding Zaha Hadid Architects in 1979, Hadid continued to receive accolades for her highly sophisticated, signature projects, including the 2004 Pritzker Architecture Prize, the Stirling Prize in 2010 and 2011, and the 2016 Royal Gold Medal by the Royal Institute of British Architects.

New Paperbacks NEW PAPERBACKS [jsb_filter_by_tags count="15" show_more="10" sort_by="total_products"/] A selection of recent paperbacks.Also, the illustrations were wonderful really bringing to life the feeling of shape and movement that Zaha saw and placed in her designs. The first book published on Zaha Hadid since her death in 2016, although book had been well into production. When Zaha Hadid suddenly died of a sudden heart attack in Miami last year, the world of architecture lost one of its most creative minds in history. Which is all the more reason why the new book, Zaha Hadid Architects: Redefining Architecture and Design (The Images Publishing Group, July 2017) is so exciting.

I was delighted to learn about Zaha Hadid and after finishing the book, I had to immediately look up the museum in Cincinnati that she designed. Readers will recognize her built work-the Vitra Fire Station near Basel and the IBA Building in Berlin- and will welcome details of her competition entry for Chicago's ITT Building, and her winning design for the Cardiff Opera House. This comprehensive volume of over two hundred projects – from the earliest experimentations to product design, from speculative follies to large-scale built works, including the London Aquatics Centre, the Dongdaemun Design Plaza in Seoul and the Dominion Office Building in Moscow – is a testament to the depth, range and excitement of her vision.

The groundbreaking monograph contains Hadid's own striking drawings and paintings, as well as hundreds of sketches, plans, and models. With her spectacular vision and belief in the power of architecture, she founded her own firm and designed some of the most outstanding buildings in the world - including the London 2012 Olympic Aquatic Centre. She was the first female architect to win both the Pritzker Prize for architecture and the prestigious RIBA Royal Gold Medal, with her long-time Partner Patrik Schumacher now the leader of Zaha Hadid Architects and in charge of many new projects. While studying at the University of Beirut, she was escribed as the most outstanding pupil the teacher had ever met.
