Galaxy Soho by Zaha Hadid Architects
If there is a project by Zaha Hadid Architects I really like, It is this – Galaxy Soho in Beijing. And from all the photos taken of it, the ones by HUFTON + CROW are my favorite for showing the building teeming with people, in context and in contrast to it! I love the foggy mood they captured… so indicative of Beijing. Many criticize Zaha Hadid for repeating herself, but in this case I just love the form and flow which play well with a “spaceship just landed” like building. The photos taken from within the small city streets are the best.

And here’s a great video by Daniel Chung, moving around and inside the complex… great shots here too.
This building went into my Architecture and Photography board on Pinterest. I invite you to follow me and see what other great things I’ve curated there for some time now.
