I always thought I was powerful, since I was a kid.

One has to strive for a very open liberal society.

The conservative values that are emerging, it may not effect architecture immediately but it will effect society and that's what worries me.

There are so many great galleries and museums in London, but they can be very crowded during the day.

All the privileged can travel, see different worlds, not everyone can. I think it is important for people to have an interesting locale nearby.

They all come out from the same thing all the projects are connected somehow.

I don't think people should do things because you know, 'I am turning this age, I must go have a husband.' If you find somebody and it works out then have kids, it's very nice. But if you don't, you don't.

Zaha Hadid

I will always have two regrets. I don't have a presence in London, and I would have liked to have done more work in the Middle East.

People say I design architectural icons. If I design a building and it becomes an icon, that's ok.
Zaha Hadid
Image
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.

Women are always told, 'You're not going to make it, its too difficult, you can't do that, don't enter this competition, you'll never win it,' - they need confidence in themselves and people around them to help them to get on.

Wherever I am in the world, my perfect day begins with waking up and heading to the beach or the pool or somewhere I can be semi-comatose. I just wake up and go to the sun.
