Re Zaha Hadid architecture:
used to be that buildings where referred to
as erections; Zaha’s, by nature are viginas –
she should stick to jewelry and shoes.

What I find quite interesting is all the discussion these zaha swooshes (of which, I agree, we can’t get enough!) are generating. People are even discussing the definition of architecture itself!! I think we’ve all fallen into the game: these things have been done to trigger discussions, test reactions, take positions (classical vs. postmodern, architecture vs. art, etc.) I find that much more valuable than just building another boring middle-class house; zaha is really pushing the edge in architectural thinking, and this discussion is proof of it!

It’s beautiful, but it’s a cake thing, you can have it anywhere with the same results. Imagine it inside a Corbusier’s house..

It’s an interesting concept, Palladio contrasted against Hadid. However, the piece would be interesting for about 3-5 minutes before you’d want to move on…

Zaha has done a great job with the wallpaper in the room.
Looks a bit old though.

one could think Zaha has a computer program that generates her fractal works every time, and its not a very good program.
in the quiet words of Homer Simpson: “boooring”
