ZHA Exhibition

“Architecture of Possibility” in Shenzhen shows how Zaha Hadid Architects rethink architecture through computation

Dear PA reader,

This week, the Carbon Garden Pavilion transforms carbon capture into an inhabitable structure, using organic geometry to make climate science tangible, while Mid-Air Ceramic 3D Printing signals a technical shift that could redefine how ceramics are used in construction and design.

In Shenzhen, Architecture of Possibility presents Zaha Hadid Architects’ work as an evolving design intelligence rooted in computation, experimentation, and urban complexity, as Display of Light: Invisible Geometry shows how light itself can act as an architectural material that defines space, depth, and movement.

At the scale of cities, these ideas become more contested. The Line in Question: Maraya in the Desert reflects on the tension between spectacle and sustainability within mega-urban visions.
