The first female Pritzker Prize-winner architect was commissioned around the world to create masterpieces including the London Olympic aquatic centre, and Messner Mountain Museum Corones. Being a woman and Muslim she didn&#8217;t have it easy but it was her strength and lack of fucks to give that made her a true legend. We remember Hadid&#8217;s five traits that turned her into a star architect for all the right reasons.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Imaginative<\/h3>\n<p>In early projects the designer presented her ideas to clients through beautiful abstract paintings, this gained her notoriety, however, it left her with a reputation for astonishing but unbuildable designs. Her creative process lead people to closely associate her skills with that of a fashion designer. &#8220;I&#8217;m into fashion because it contains the mood of the day, of the moment &#8211; like music, literature, and art,&#8221; she once said. Hadid frequently collaborated with Karl Lagerfeld which amounted in the Mobile Art Pavilion designed for Chanel, launched in 2011 in Paris.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8216;I&#8217;m into fashion because it contains the mood of the day, of the moment &#8211; like music, literature, and art&#8217;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"size--small\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-30210 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/01.-Heydar-Aliyev-Center-Baku_photo-by-HuftonCrow.jpg\" alt=\"01.

Her avant garde work and use of innovative technologies developed into a\u00a0 style of its own. Deservingly, Hadid was the first woman to win the Pritzker Prize as well the first woman to be honoured the British RIBA Gold Medal, in 2016. In part of her acceptance speech she commented on the struggles women experience in the business world specifically within architecture: \u201cWe now see more established female architects all the time. That doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s easy. Sometimes the challenges are immense.\u201d<br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Nobility<\/h3>\n<p>&#8220;Education, housing and hospitals are the most important things for society,&#8221; Hadid said. She believed\u00a0 in having a back bone for society to build upon, a reputable quality she was widely admired for. Hadid strived to change our perceptions of space, <span lang=\"en-US\">not only in physically but socially and culturally as well.\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8216;Education, housing and hospitals are the most important things for society&#8217;<br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"size--small\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-30212 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/03.-London-Aquatics-Centre_photo-HuftonCrow.jpg\" alt=\"03.
