More quotes by Zaha Hadid
As a woman you're not accessible to every world.
Zaha Hadid
Half of architecture students are women, and you see respected, established female architects all the time.
Zaha Hadid
There are some very similar moments in the early work where the focus was on drawing, abstraction and fragmentation. Then it moved to the development of ideas. Lately it has become what architecture should be, which is more fluid organization. There has not been so much 'a change' but 'a development'.
Zaha Hadid
I have always appreciated those who dare to experiment with materials and proportions.
Zaha Hadid
I am equally proud of all of my architectural projects. It's always rewarding to see an ambitious design become reality.
Zaha Hadid
Obviously for some people there is a big connection between music and the way you can create a space.
Zaha Hadid
It would be very interesting to design objects for everyday life, something where the ideas that are expressed can be launched into society.
Zaha Hadid
The spirit of adventure to embrace the new and the incredible belief in the power of invention attracted me to the Russian avant-garde.
Zaha Hadid
I've always thought that design can have equal importance to the idea of internal architecture. Professionally, things can be very dogmatic - you do the architecture, someone else does the interiors, someone else does the furniture, the fabric, etc. But I think design is all-encompassing.
Zaha Hadid
You really have to have a goal. The goal posts might shift, but you should have a goal. Know what it is you want to find out.
Zaha Hadid
It's very important for cities all around the world to reinvent themselves, and Glasgow is a good example of that. The Scots are very nice. I don't think they are burdened by their history.
Zaha Hadid
I don't think that architecture is only about shelter, is only about a very simple enclosure. It should be able to excite you, to calm you, to make you think.
Zaha Hadid
I have been interested in fashion since I was a kid. Then I lived in London, where it was more about costume and a personal statement of who you are than about fashion.
Zaha Hadid
I think about architecture all the time. That's the problem. But I've always been like that. I dream it sometimes.
Zaha Hadid
The world is looking more and more segmented, the difference between people is becoming greater.
Zaha Hadid
Contrary to popular view, I've never been patronized in the Middle East. Men maybe treat women differently, but they do not treat them with disrespect. They don't hate women. It's a very different kind of mentality.
Zaha Hadid
From my first days studying architecture at the architectural association, I have always been interested in the concept of fragmentation and with ideas of abstraction and explosion, where we were de-constructing ideas of repetitiveness and mass production.
Zaha Hadid
One has to strive for a very open liberal society.
Zaha Hadid
They all come out from the same thing all the projects are connected somehow.
Zaha Hadid
Life in the Middle East is quite different from other places.
