Happy birthday to the legendary Zaha Hadid! The woman who single-handedly made straight lines nervous and taught geometry how to dance. Your futuristic designs have not only reshaped skylines but also our imaginations—proving that curves can indeed conquer corners, especially when winning prestigious awards like your groundbreaking Pritzker Prize in 2004.From dazzling us with fragmented geometries at Singapore's one-north master plan competition (where you effortlessly took first place), to scooping up back-to-back Stirling Prizes in 2010 and 2011—you've shown architecture who's boss. Here's hoping heaven has enough room for all those spectacular angles you're probably sketching right now!
