She was ill with pneumonia and suffered a heart attack on hospital. I loved the shpes of her buildings. Such innovation.

Yes a tragic loss to architecture but also as a role model to women from her country and beyond.

I was very surprised to hear that on the TV news but I missed most of the item. How old was she, Pen? Had she been ill?

Sorry that Zaha Hadid , who overcame a lot of prejudice to become top of her profession, has died so young.
