I feel that all the time. You work so hard and sometimes achieve so little its honestly painful. I am typing this rn as I pull off an all-nighter for a final studio.

you must be proud of her cause she's Arab. Well, you should actually.... at least one Arab person who doesn't practice terror. she should get an award for it!
othfan44 u r so racist u know the math u use is created by arabs? aljebra is an arabic word? ibn khaldoun created today's sociology? ibn sina developped the medcine? and the list is long christians created terror before spreading it in today's world

Abdelhak Chaker I'm the brainwashed one???? What about ISIS, Al Qaeda, Hamas, Taliban, Islamic Jihad?!?! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_designated_terrorist_groups ALL are Islamic terrorist organizations! Jesus, you can't be THAT stupid to think people are actually going to buy your lies!
I am a fourth year Architecture student living in Jerusalem Israel. And I think that you are a great! much respect to you and to your work. keep on shining. god bless.
As an architect, I am sure Zaha Hadid is the most free-minded architect in the world. Her work is not influenced by the conventional aspect of modern construction. Many times innovation was paralleling with her ideas. New technology was often being brought in in order to realize her design. She is the pioneer of future architecture.
:48 she is right about that...because I remember when I took a class in high school and some of the guys struggled at reading the floor plans and using auto- CAD ...some men don't like it when a female can do better at their dominated field.....because some men pursue it for the wrong reasons too...this field is definitely not something you want to waste time in if your heart isn't in it...
If I had just one dollar for everytime I've heard another architect saying "if you're a doctor, if you're a lawyer, people dont argue with you. But people argue with architects and feel like they can negotiate with your standards and rates".... I would probably have about half a million dollars.
@LokHangLorraine Architects or students always learn through the practise of architecture. it's a never ending process. by put it as a profession, it does kinda of put a stop to the process, which is never the case in the practice of architecture.
I think for sure its a field headed for many changes its constantly evolving what you learned 15 to 20 years ago is being challenged by technology and digital applications. Talk about life long learning-
I want to know the answer to the first thing she said " I dont think it is a profession?"0.20 "what is it then?" Does she mean people are also biased in saying it is a profession when they are architects. as apposed to the universal status of architecture? what is it then? @4.27 shes says i think architecture is a fantastic profession.
I liked the video , I have a question to manage the program which uses Zaha Hadid NECESSARY FOR YOUR PROJECTS master mathematics 'd really appreciate it ?, THANKS
Don't know if I agree with her assertion about the critical role of teamwork given her history within her own studio. Yes, the team can work so long as they are all a team and she is the coach. There are multiple studies that show that creative design by committee produces lesser work than small groups or individuals. In a way, that is how she started. Teamwork is just the most recent catch-phrase within Architecture sometimes used to justify maintaining an army of underpaid and underappreciated workers all feeding into the ego of another and occasionally producing some true gems.
but being a woman in architecture and engineering is not difficult. I start in arch then went to engineering. You get all the support in the world especially nowadays.
Please, if you wish to share your idea's & thoughts, share them in a respectful manner, so that all of humanity can get along, being subjective & prejudice about certain issues is not going to get us forward in dealing with 1.6 billion people (islam; muslims; those whom are practicing of course). Peace & Love. Your brother in humanity.
Totally agree! Thanks! You might want to check out my new series WHAT ARCHITECTURE SCHOOL DOES NOT TEACH YOU @whatarchschooldoesnotteachyou here on TH-cam, Instagram and Twitter! It's my Architecture journey of stories and lessons (un)learnt through which I aim to empower architects, architecture students and creatives to seek their truth! We are moving towards a new Architectural consciousness which means it is crucial to raise (self)awareness within the industry! Come join the community and subscribe, there is so much I have to share with you!
For those who read, there's a penetrating and revealing look at her professional life in Rowan Moore's book "Why We Build." She's in a unique position as the preeminent woman in the world of architecture, the only one to receive a Pritzker Prize. Her ability to thrive at that level of achievement is a testament to her resilience in a world dominated by men. I wish I could find that video of her throwing a tantrum during an interview.
***** I'm not so sure that my observations about architecture as a male-dominated profession are off the mark. I have worked in that field (designer in an office, writing for publications, and as a professor) and the shift to a more equal gender distribution of design responsibilites is still not fully realized. (I can only speak from my experiences in Seattle, San Francisco, Los Angeles and Austin.) My admiration for Zaha is not based on her architecture, but on her dogged persistence to assert herself where many women would just accept the status quo. She sets herself up as an easy target in that effort and that contributes to her "difficult" personality.
Oh, you are that person I was talking about in total awe of these kinds of buildings I hate. I am a minimalist and modernist in every sense. My house is completely white with Mies Van der Rohe and Arne Jacobsen furniture while yours probably has antiques or is "eclectic". We are total opposites and will never agree, get over it.
@umtemaisoutrote Well, I don't really think so that she could reach the level she is at the moment if she wasn't, at least, a clever and methodical. The truth is that she is such a trademark and amazingly commercial now, but still her designs are outstanding!
Yup I think people should respect the profession more. One teacher from the other faculty commented to me that architects only know how to "make things look pretty". Sad really...
As an architecture student, I find her an important figure in popularising architecture, showing that women can achieve great things in our profession etc., but I have little respect for her as an actual architect. Here's why... although she has produced some very decent projects in her career, they are, on average, her smaller, less known projects. The buildings she's known for, and the ones she seemed most proud of, were the ones which capture the public's imagination on pretty photos, but are actually harmful for the environment they're built in, do not function as they should, are unnecessarily complicated and expensive for the sake of sculpturalism and are merely a reflection of her massive ego. Whoever elevates herself above the rest of us, thinking she is somehow greater (which she has said in one way or another) by definition can't be a great architect - someone whose primary duty is empowering other people's lives through design, rather than empowering herself through publicising and media attention. Even though she has also said that architecture is for the people, I think it'd be unfair to compare her to someone like Aravena, who actually does good for thousands of people by improving their living conditions, instead of giving them some white curves to look at. By no means do I think that all architects should be designing only social housing and building schools in Sub-Saharan Africa, but our profession would certainly benefit if more people shared this kind of mindset. Architecture is not about shape - it's about the life that this shape attracts, guides and enhances. ... nevertheless, RIP
Rok Sraka Brahh you have no clue what her work did for people like us, architecture students, she has liberated our minds she has given us permission to let out our imaginations. Her work is a powerful tool. To anyone who sees this either as an architect or a farmer they will learn that there are no limits in this world they will learn that they themselves can do anything. Brah her work can also inspire people living in poverty her architecture cam send a message of limitless possibility to those who need it.
Ah so she says architecture is a profession although many people dont see it that way, And is not respected and trusted enough on public buildings. So i guess some can practice the profession side of architecture, yet others can only really be architects on the same level as home builders and developers. Unless you are trusted fully with a general brief you then fall in the profession category. To do it well you need full trust from the clients without being told to much what to do by them.
He wished for his God to bless Zaha, at least NOW. He didn't write "May ALLAH bless you now and hereafter". Get right, get real. OMG, for people like you that still be living on this pure soil, I just could say "Bless you".
uhm no I was just telling you that even if you are not a muslim a muslim can pray to god/allah for you and the girl/boy was saying "May allah bless you" you replyd and told her "I don't think shes into allah and shit" so even if you dont believe in anything someone who does believes in something can pray for you thats it!! dont be so rude dude
@7superduper I wasn't being offensive, since I like Lady Gaga's innovativeness and modernity, much like Zaha Hadid. Don't worry, I'm not that much of a fan of Lady G's music either. lol!
I recognize her genius but the first question about gender bias is just absurd. Awards recognize those who earned a astute feat in certain fields it just happens that plenty of men are awarded in Pritzker Prize just as much as many more men are awarded in Nobel Prize. Thats probably because there are more men are engaged in fields like architecture, engineering,science, medicine and mathematics compared to women.
so that's your contra argument? very mature. one more thing though, it doesn't matter where and into what religion people are born, its what they become that matters.
Long time ago, learn if the subject (individual looks on the left side frequently he/she is lying or making up unfounded facts. Therefore, I do not think she is honest in this interview.
"it's too painful...it's very very demanding to do it well and thats why most of us do it badly".

Taking all of those challenges.. Was that worthy enough. What do u think?..
She’s my favourite architect. Her work is fantastically beautiful and beyond compare. Artistic vision is hers.
your beautiful work will be an immortal witness of what great person this earth has witnessed! thank you!!
I think she is the real Iron Lady, both in name and character, Hadid= means Iron in Arabic! So proud of her:)
you must be proud of her cause she's Arab. Well, you should actually.... at least one Arab person who doesn't practice terror. she should get an award for it!

try2justbe yeah u're right bro
Shes like the realist architect alive...
the correct spelling of her name is Zuha as it's pronounced in Arabic language or Iraqi accent ..
I love her work, glad to learn more about her! Thanks for posting.

I really enjoyed this interview, thank you.
RIP .....She was born in the right place where she was able to exploit her potential and display her brilliance
Mimi sangale she was born in baghdad
RIP Zaha your works are unforgettable......u r my role model
As an architect, I am sure Zaha Hadid is the most free-minded architect in the world. Her work is not influenced by the conventional aspect of modern construction. Many times innovation was paralleling with her ideas. New technology was often being brought in in order to realize her design. She is the pioneer of future architecture.
I love and admire this human being!!! And she inspires as well!!! The humanity needs more people like her!!
Your hard works and achievement...you have my respect.
:48 she is right about that...because I remember when I took a class in high school and some of the guys struggled at reading the floor plans and using auto- CAD ...some men don't like it when a female can do better at their dominated field.....because some men pursue it for the wrong reasons too...this field is definitely not something you want to waste time in if your heart isn't in it...
REST IN PEACE ZAHA.
If I had just one dollar for everytime I've heard another architect saying "if you're a doctor, if you're a lawyer, people dont argue with you. But people argue with architects and feel like they can negotiate with your standards and rates".... I would probably have about half a million dollars.
impresive interview thanks so much.

I think for sure its a field headed for many changes its constantly evolving what you learned 15 to 20 years ago is being challenged by technology and digital applications. Talk about life long learning-
here work is a perfect blend of math and architecture with more than a touch of engineering. Like her work or not you have to admire her mind
Listen to Toyo Ito, listen to Sanaa...darn this woman knows how to talk!
She is one of the few architects whose theory and the actual form of architecture are equally amazing.
Wow..superbly incredible amazingly brave designer
my no. 1 inpiration
Misss uu so much mam ...rip...

@proximaism no theyre not. theyre composed of recursive and parametric design
Una mente tan brillante no necesita empaquetadura... ! ZAHA HADID the best!
5:25-5:35...true indeed...i face this many times...!!
proud of u..my nation proud of such lady
Shes an inspiration
Respect for this lady.
I liked the video , I have a question to manage the program which uses Zaha Hadid NECESSARY FOR YOUR PROJECTS master mathematics 'd really appreciate it ?, THANKS

Genius Woman
lord well ho interviewed 6 exceptional designers during this year's design week.
you can find more on his website
has she ever done a site analysis?
Richod no her concept is to impose her project, to dominate, to steal the attention so she creates a contrast with the environnement
Richod no her concept is to impose her project, to dominate, to steal the attention so she creates a contrast with the environnement
Except Zaha Hadid is a true visionary, genius, and everything she does has never been seen or done before (a million times.)
YOU ARE THE BEST
Love you so much gad bless your soul
Amazing!!
she talking to the interviewer !! not the camera
ZAHA HADID u r my idol and i'm sooo proud cuz u r from my lovely county IRAQ
my dream is being like u
love u :)
maryam
how did you know that?
her designs are simply composed of expressive geometries nothing more just like an ordinary architect.
@Malbo22 well that can be a compliment or an insult, which depends on the individual. but either way nice comparison.
as any great architect, shes has a strong team behind her.
Prejudice Sucks. People who are prejudiced or witness prejudice need to stop. It's a continuous Fight just as Zaha says.
"The professional is not bias, the people are"
but being a woman in architecture and engineering is not difficult. I start in arch then went to engineering. You get all the support in the world especially nowadays.

What makes architecture so hard?
people
It takes years for a building to be visible unlike music or cinema or paintings !!!!
Rem koolhaas said architecture is an incredibly slow process !!

she is very strong and intimidating but also sincere and beautiful

Rest In Peace the “Queen Of Curve”I learned a lot about her on my project and her nickname is the queen of curve!
uhm no I was just telling you that even if you are not a muslim
a muslim can pray to god/allah for you
and the girl/boy was saying "May allah bless you"
you replyd and told her "I don't think shes into allah and shit"
so even if you dont believe in anything someone who does believes in something can pray for you
thats it!! dont be so rude dude
Fierce!
FUCK I need subtittles

interesting.
@7superduper I wasn't being offensive, since I like Lady Gaga's innovativeness and modernity, much like Zaha Hadid. Don't worry, I'm not that much of a fan of Lady G's music either. lol!
maybe but she doesn't said that she is
she just said that god / allah may bless her even if she is christian or not :)
what inspired zaha hadid to become an architect?
you are very very well I LOVE YOUR SCULPTURES ''ZAHA'' I WOULD LİKE TO BE SAME YOU
@Heyabong True, but more so with someone like Justin Bieber, he's equally talented and twelve! Sorry for being unfair.
@Malbo22 OMG i just thinking of that on my head right now !!

this woman gonna kill me!! TRULY WHAT MEN CAN DO, women CAN DO MOST MORE BETTER!!!
the ability of asking so stupid question to an extreme intelligent as Zaha is to blame like hell
I do not find any interest in this interview. There is an enormous difference between the fascinating work of Zaha Hadid and her talking.
People have a preferred way to express themselves. Obviously for her, its design not talk
She looks like a mature version of Mona Lisa...
Long time ago, learn if the subject (individual looks on the left side frequently he/she is lying or making up unfounded facts. Therefore, I do not think she is honest in this interview.
