This book unlocks the dazzling designs of Dame Zaha Hadid, the first woman to have claimed the Pritzker Prize - from the monumental airport terminal to the majestic Olympic ski jump. With striking photographs, illustrative drawings and captivating descriptions, readers can journey through the visionary creations of the Queen of the Curve.

The late Zaha Hadid (1950 - 2016) was an innovatory architect whose daring prototypes were long thought to be unconscionably ambitious. Yet, her vivid visions came to fruition over the later course of her life, adorning cities and constructions like the Port House in Antwerp, the Al Janoub Stadium near Doha, Qatar, and Beijing's luxurious new air terminal. By the time of her untimely death in 2016, Hadid had entrenched her legacy in the upper echelons of architecture, with projects across the globe from Europe to the United States. This exclusive and comprehensive edition of Hadid's entire oeuvre, from finished projects to those still in progress, is now available in a convenient format. The book follows her story through photographs, detailed sketches, and her own drawings, with a focus on her most defining structures and their integrated furniture and interior designs that epitomize Hadid's inherently 21st-century style.
