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.

My favorite piece of technology

 I will start by saying that I love technology, for me it the best thing that could happen to humanity. It is difficult for me to decide which technological objets is my favorite, so I will talk about the one that I use the most, which is my computer. I have had my computer. I have had my computer for two years and with it I do practically everythings. With the pandemic, the computer is the only possibility I have to continue studying, and even before that I needed it to make desing for the workshop, and install essential programs for my career such as Autocad, Photoshop, Illustator, Archicad, among others.  I not only use it for academic reason, I also have my life on the computer, I keep photos of my friends, my baby, my family and I can also enter to social media, so I don't know what I would do without my computer. I also like it a lot because it is light, so I can take it everywhere. currently I use it more than 8 hours a day, witch is too much, and although I like it a l...

why did I choose my major?

 I am currently studying architecture at the universidad de Chile. When I was a child I always liked to build houses for my dolls or other toys. Although I liked many other careers, I decided to study architecture, since it is a very entertaining profession where I can Express my creativity to help people improve their quality of life.  I used to be interested in psychology, but I' am not passionate about reading so many books, instead I prefer to do crafts such as knitting, drawing, painting, among others, which has helped a lot in the development of my profession.  My experience at the university has been very extreme, because I can go days without sleep, since designing is really difficult and requires a lot of dedication and effort, but in spite of everything I love what I'am currently doing. At the moment I'am specializing in public policies, since my intention is to improve the quality of social houses in order to help people to have access to decent house.  My...

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.
