Zaha Hadid

Zaha Hadid was born on October 31,1950 in Baghdad Iraq, and began her university studies at the American University of Beirut, where she initially studied mathematics.

She moved to London in 1972 to study architecture at the Architectural Association and after graduating in 1977, she joined the architecture firm: Office for Metropolitan Architecture (OMA).

Later she started her own practice in London in 1980, founding her own architecture firm called Zaha Hadid Architects in which she specializes in the branch of deconstructivism, that is based essentially on non- linear desing. She also became interested in painting and drawing, especially in her early stage, and they were important research techniques for her work. 

Among her most important work are, Hong Kong Peak Club, Vitra fire station and center for contemporary. 

I like because she was the first woman to win the prestigious Pritzker Architecture Prize and I think the greatest female architect in the world.

A meal or food you really like

When you ask me for my favorite food, my answer is fast, humitas are the best meal that could ever exist, is really sad that it could be cooked just between december and february, but my obsession makes me frozen it and I can eat them during the whole year.  Humitas are made with corn, onion, sometimes with chili pepper. I honestly love corn and I think it is one of my favorite vegetables but I really prefer it as a humita. Is not a dangerous food, if we talk about nutritional facts, they are cooked but sometimes to reheat them I fry them and in some way it could be harmful for me but worth it, moreover, I don't know how to cook, but my mom does and she cook delicious and I really enjoy everything she does and finally humitas are a reason why I love summer.

A subject you've enjoyed studying this semester

This year I had to specialise and take some elective branches. It was a year in which I studied what really interested me, but the best branch I had was "Racionalidad neoliberal", where the teacher demostrated to have a true vocation and passion for teaching. This subject, in addition to showing a vision of broad, inclusive and historical public policies, helped me develop a critical position on current issues.  His teaching methodology was with conversations where we could all have an opinion on a topic and served us to meet as classmates, whitch has been very difficult because of the pandemic. One of the best practises of the course was not to have too much academic burden, we had to create groups of 5 people where I agree to be with friends, we had a great time doing the work. The main qualification was a report in whitch the teacher was evaluation us according to our progress. Perhaps his compressiv & friendly metodology was due to the fact that he was not an archit...
