The battle continues, and Fortune has listed Gehry’s Stata Center as no.55 in its list of 101 dumbest moments in Business (USA business).Oh well, form for forms sake is always going to be a challenge. I have to agree with Fortune here. 
Yes, some certainly are. Like Zaha’s latest creation. I’m not saying it’s a bad thing. Hell, you’re reading mine right now. It is the modern world’s way of showing us yet another perspective. That is what all designers want isn’t it? Another perspective to critique? No, yes?
Liking something or not liking something doesn’t tend to matter anyway, so what is the point in asking. Although it is the question that drives us. Just like it drove Neo in the first Matrix movie. The good one.
Anyway check out Zaha’s blog by clicking here. If anything you’ll wind up liking her latest additions to Innsbruek.
She is the ultimate designer of transient space. The blog is very informative, though selective of her work (derr, obviously). What I want to see is, where she takes inspiration from, and who is in charge of detailing her buildings. Who the hell is her concrete consultant (if there is such a thing)? Many questions still left unanswered. The way a great designer wants it to be.
