ZAHA HADID ARCHITECTS Elastika

Frequentemente considerada a arquiteta contemporânea mais proeminente, Zaha Hadid, nascida iraquiana, ultrapassa qualquer esterótipo ligado ao sexo feminino e ao mundo árabe, por seu talento intelectual inegável. Por muitos anos seus projetos foram considerados muito ousados ou radicais, mas sua estrela começou a brilhar internacionalmente quando seu projeto para o Ohio’s New Center for Contemporary Art foi selecionado e construído. Radicada em Londres, tornou-se em 2004 a primeira mulher e primeira muçulmana a receber o Premio Pritzker de Arquitetura. Seu escritório atualmente emprega mais de 350 pessoas.

ムーアビルは昨年までのメイン会場。2005年初年のデザイナー・オブ・ザ・イヤー、ザハ・ハディドがレガシープロジェクトとして寄贈したインスタレーションは、観光名所にもなっているようです。06年はマーク・ニューソン、07年は吉岡徳仁が受賞していますが、今年のカンパナ兄弟はマイアミに何を残すのか、楽しみです。

The Moore Building is located in the heart of Miami’s famed design District. This historic venue was built in 1921 as the furniture showroom space for Moore and Sons. The truly unique building boasts four floors of arcaded spaces totaling more than 20,000 square feet. The soaring central atrium accommodates 4,400 people for receptions and 1,100 for seated events.On permanent display in the atrium is the site-specific installation “Elastika,” created by Iraqi-born London-based architect, Zaha Hadid, and commissioned by owner Craig Robins, president of Dacra. Together they wanted a design which compliments and at the same time contradicts the period in which the Moore Building was built.The Moore Building is the company’s most well known venue and has been said to be an ideal choice of events.
