Zaha Hadid Architects

Zaha Hadid Architects (ZHA) is a British architecture and design powerhouse founded in 1979 by Dame Zaha Hadid, the pioneering "Queen of Curves" and first woman to win the Pritzker Architecture Prize. Based in London with around 500 team members, ZHA is renowned for its bold, fluid structures and global reach—encompassing cultural icons like Rome’s MAXXI Museum, Guangzhou’s Opera House, and Beijing’s Daxing Airport. Continuing its legacy under Patrik Schumacher’s leadership, the firm embraces advanced design technologies like AI—through its in-house ZHAI (Analytics + Insights) unit—to accelerate creativity and secure winning proposals. ZHA consistently blends artistry, parametricism, and sustainability in shaping some of the most daring and influential architectural projects around the world.
