Building the future now. The iconic work of a singular architect
Zaha Hadid
is a wildly controversial architect, who for many years built almost nothing, despite her designs winning prizes and critical acclaim. Some even said her work was unbuildable. Yet over the past decade she has completed numerous structures including the
Rosenthal Center for Contemporary Art in Cincinnati
(which the
New York Times
called ’’the most important new building in America since the Cold War’’), the
Phaeno Science Center
in Wolfsburg, Germany,and the
Central Building of the new BMW Assembly Plant
in Leipzig. Today, Hadid is firmly established among the élite of world architecture, her audacious and futuristic designs having catapulted her to international fame.
Born in Baghdad and educated in London, where her practice is based, Hadid has designed radical architecture for over 30 years and is now the subject of this massive TASCHEN monograph.
Covering her complete works to date
, and all of her recent work from Dubai to Guangzhou, this XL tome demonstrates the progression of Hadid’s career—including not only buildings but also furniture and interior designs—with in-depth texts, spectacular photos, and her own drawings. Also included is a special section with translucent vellum paper allowing multiple layers of designs to be viewed at once or separately.
