Zaha Hadid and her team continue to make daring structures challenging traditional ideals of what museums should look like. The materials, the curves, the placement – they all defy the common place museum. We’ve enjoyed her work in places like Cincinnati’s Contemporary Arts Center. And her latest, the Regium Waterfront Project, is another awesome structure among her innovative works.

Wallpaper covers the project: “The upcoming Maxxi National Modern Art museum in Rome will be the first Italy project by Zaha Hadid to be completed in 2009, but meanwhile the architect has a growing number of ongoing projects all over the country, including a modern art museum in Cagliari, a housing block in Florence and a train station in Naples. Last week, one more was added to the list, when the agreement for the Regium Waterfront project was officially signed at the Italian embassy in London.” Click Read More for additional photos and information.
