At age 65, Zaha Hadid (b.1950, d. 2016) had given the world not one, but a variety of impressive architecture buildings. Hadid, a Pritzker Architecture Prize 2004 laureate, and the first female to receive the Pritzker Architecture Prize (as equivalent to the Noble Prize in the world of architects), passed in Miami on March 31st, 2016.

Herein, a selection of her architecture works and we would like to thank Hadid for her contributions and the buildings that will last for many generations to come.
