Zaha Hadid: the Chanel Pavilion in Central Park



The pavilion was on view in Hong Kong and Tokyo. It is now in New York.

Its mysterious Nautilus-like form, which can be easily dismantled and shipped to the next city on its global tour, reflects the keen architectural intelligence of its creator, the Iraqi architect Zaha Hadid.

One of architecture’s most magical aspects is the range of subjects it allows you to engage, from the complex social relationships embodied in a single-family house to the intense communal focus of a concert hall. Great talents want to explore them all (Nicolai Ouroussoff in NY Times).
