Zaha Hadid: A complete list of unbuilt designs

The tragic loss of Zaha Hadid last year left the architecture world suddenly bereft of her inspiring talent. As many obituaries and remembrances since have noted, perhaps one of the biggest tragedies is that Hadid, who passed away at the top of her profession at the age of 65, had years of creating new buildings in front of her. But that doesn?t mean we?ll never see a new Hadid design take shape. The architects at her firm, Zaha Hadid Architects, played key roles creating many of her masterpieces, as well as scores of forthcoming projects across the globe. After consulting with Zaha Hadid Architects, we?ve put together this list of the firm?s outstanding and unrealized projects and proposals designed when Dame Hadid was still leading the firm, which now sit in various stages of development, planning, or in some cases, stasis, with proposed completion dates where appropriate (we haven't found images for the TSG Beirut Project or a proposed second phase of the Nuremberg Messe, and left out earlier work not on their list, such as the famous Peak Leisure Club). Spanning more than a decade of ideas, these renderings and videos showcase many of the themes and ideas that have made (and will continue to make) Hadid such an inspirational figure.
