Description

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. As an adult, she seems a bit like a mad scientist, totally obsessed by the world of architecture and the possibilities she found in trying new designs while never being afraid to be herself, even in the way she dressed.

For domestic clients, both for large or small projects, and especially those who have never carried out this role before, this guide offers a quick and easy overview of the value, mechanisms and context of appointing your architect. OH THE CONVERSATIONS students might have as they compare and contrast the illustrations and how those illustrations support the big ideas in each book. Born back in 1985, the Basic Art Series has evolved into the best-selling art book collection ever published. Meet Ella Fitzgerald, First Lady of Song who once said, "It's not where you come from, but where you're going that counts. Working for more than fifteen years for clients in top advertising agencies, her books combine creativity with learning, aiming to establish a new and fresh relationship between children and pop culture.

Born in Baghdad, Iraq, Zaha Hadid (1950-2016) studied architecture in London and she became one of the most highly renowned and revered architects in the world. Hadid also held chairs and guest professorships at various universities worldwide, including Columbia, Harvard, Yale and the University of Applied Arts in Vienna. Meet Billie Jean King, the tennis star who has dedicated her life to breaking barriers both on and off the tennis court. Also, the illustrations were wonderful really bringing to life the feeling of shape and movement that Zaha saw and placed in her designs.

By her untimely death in 2016, Hadid was firmly established among architecture’s finest elite, working on projects in Europe, China, the Middle East, and the United States. Hadid had some FASCINATING ideas for what buildings should look like - her attempt to create "harmony between humans and their surroundings.Also in this series - Amelia Earhart, Emmeline Pankhurst, Agatha Christie, Maya Angelou, Coco Chanel and Frida Kahlo. Inspired by the shared ideas and prominent for its breadth of practice, and beautifully packaged with detailed drawings, rich photography and insightful commentary, this exquisite book showcases and celebrates the intelligent design approach of the firm under the direction of one of the world’s most extraordinary and iconic leaders in the fields of architecture, design and urbanism. 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. The author's fondness for this woman is clear from the text and the Author's Note in the back matter, and readers will enjoy seeing photographs of Zaha as well as referring to the Selected Timeline and Selected Bibliography while possibly wondering what made her tick. She was an artist, as much as an architect, who fought to break the old rules and crafted her own 21st-century universe.
