Who is Zaha Hadid?

We asked this question in back in 2004, and now it seems a little silly. Today everyone knows the name of Iraqi-born British architect Zaha Hadid. After winning a Pritzker, she went on to design important buildings around the world, most memorably the Aquatics Centre for the 2012 London Olympics.

Where to next? Zaha Hadid was seen just last weekend in Michigan, opening up the Broad Art Museum. Dame Zaha Hadid's deconstructivist architecture is in high demand and can be found on several continents. Our Zaha Hadid Architecture Portfolio is a multi-paged look at highlights from her career.
