Zaha at The Opus press launch
Jun 12th, 2007Here is a (very shaky) video of Zaha Hadid at the launch of The Opus, a design for a new office building for Omniyat Properties at Business Bay in Dubai.
In the clip Zaha explains the concept behind the project, which is based around the idea of a cube that has been eroded at its centre.
The launch was held at The Lanesborough Hotel in London a couple of weeks ago; see images of the project over on dezeen.
Apologies for the amateurish quality of the movie, which is not helped by the fact that the photographer sitting directly in front keeps craning his head and blocking our view…

I’ve had the itch to try decoupage. Being a huge booklover and print design hound, I’m always collecting bits of paper and interesting images simply because I like the way they look.I had plenty of online instructions bookmarked. And even some inspiring examples — like guest designer Linda Merrill (proof that even a trash can can be beautiful) and fellow nesting mom Courtney Russell (finally - a use for old sewing patterns!). But it wasn’t until I found the perfect-height bookshelf to serve as a nightstand for my son’s low storage bed and the perfect solution for the pile of books that seems to accumulate there.
