Review
'This publication captures Hadid's agile vision in four-channel quadrophonic images, texts, drawings and photographs better than any other monograph or publication to date' - Greg Lynn
Product Description
Zaha Hadid is the most famous woman architect in the world, and the first to win the Pritzker Prize. Having achieved international recognition through her striking images and design, the Iraqi-born, London-based architect is now of the profession's most sought-after figures. Her buildings are now appearing across the globe, from Europe to the United States, in China and Japan. Zaha Hadid's moment has arrived. Zaha Hadid: Complete Works is one of the most exciting and complex architectural monographs ever published. This brilliantly conceived and designed publication comprises four volumes of differing sizes that offer multiple perspectives on more than a hundred projects and over twenty years at the vanguard of architecture. Major and Recent Projects is a large-scale presentation of Hadid's recently built work and famed paintings, while the thematically organized Projects Documentation identifies the strands of her work through detailed descriptions and illustrations. Models and Sketches is a selection of the architect's groundbreaking explorations in perspective, many taken from her private sketchbooks, and previously unpublished. Essays and References features essays by international critics, an appreciation by maverick Peter Cook and an exhaustive reference section, including a bibliography and project data.

Format:Hardcover
This is a beautifully put together product and is a great showpiece for your bookshelves. The books themselves contain an interesting variety of information unique for a lot of monographs. However, I warn against purchasing it online, as it requires special care with shipping, which Amazon seems unable to comprehend. If you do buy it online, please attempt to request extra packing protection, and have it labeled 'fragile'(and hope that you are listened too), or be warned, there is a good chance you will received a cracked acrylic case......
