Zaha Hadid is an architect whose work experiments with spatial quality, extending and intensifying existing landscapes in the pursuit of a visionary aesthetic that encompasses all fields of design, ranging from urban scale through to products, interiors and furniture.
She is best known for her seminal built works: the Vitra Fire Station, Land Formation-One, Strasbourg Tram Station and the Centre for Contemporary Art in Cincinnati.
Some forty recent projects are featured including major buildings nearing completion and much work in progress in her rapidly expanding London office. A selection of her paintings and presentation of recent design commissions are further illustrations of the breadth and scope of her ongoing work.
