The message below is one we think you should take a close, serious look at.   Hadid began her studies at the American University in Beirut, Lebanon, receiving a bachelor’s degree in mathematics. In 1972 she traveled to London to study at the Architectural Association, a major centre of progressive architectural thought during the 1970s. There she met the architects Elia Zenghelis and Rem Koolhaas, with whom she would collaborate as a partner at the Office of Metropolitan Architecture. Hadid established her own London-based firm, Zaha Hadid Architects (ZHA), in 1979. In 1983 Hadid gained international recognition with her competition-winning entry for The Peak, a leisure and recreational centre in Hong Kong. This design, a “horizontal skyscraper” that moved at a dynamic diagonal down the hillside site, established her aesthetic: inspired by Kazimir Malevich and the Suprematists, her aggressive geometric designs are characterized by a sense of fragmentation, instability, and movement. This fragmented style led her to be grouped with architects known as “deconstructivists,” a classification made popular by the 1988 landmark exhibition “Deconstructivist Architecture” held at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. Hadid’s design for The Peak was never realized, nor were most of her other radical designs in the 1980s and early ’90s, including the Kurfürstendamm (1986) in Berlin, the Düsseldorf Art and Media Centre (1992–93), and the Cardiff Bay Opera House (1994) in Wales. Hadid began to be known as a “paper architect,” meaning her designs were too avant-garde to move beyond the sketch phase and actually be built. This impression of her was heightened when her beautifully rendered designs—often in the form of exquisitely detailed coloured paintings—were exhibited as works of art in major museums. Dear Reader, Investigative reporter and PhD, Nomi Prins is at [the FIRST gas station in America]( to no longer offer gasoline. As you’ll see in the picture below, all of the traditional pumps are gone! The owner you see in this picture… Installed [this new pump]( and never looked back… even in the face of high gas prices. And now, he’s revealed to Nomi… his colleagues are doing the same. 500,000 more stations are going up nationwide. It’s a small army of gas station clerks leading this fight. And you WILL NOT be able to fill your traditional gas cans or cars at these upgraded stations. [Click here]( or the video below so you can see… [fuel video]( Sincerely, Maria Bonaventura Senior Managing Editor, Rogue Economics P.S. It’s hard to believe how excited these attendants are to make the switch. [Go live on the scene with Nomi]( to see this gas station undergoing a radical change. Howell is a spirited 73, slim and nervily self-effacing, in dark jeans and a green wool sweater. When she talks about the clothes she has made and kept, you are also aware she is talking about her life. Associations bleed into each other. A beautiful unlined linen jacket on the archive rack, another first that has become a staple, brings back childhood images of “men on the seafront, on the south coast, with their Sunday jackets on”. And also memories of her grandfather, who had a barber shop in Walton-on-the-Hill in Surrey, and a Victorian house where he grew peaches up the garden wall. And of visits to his sisters – Howell’s aunts – who lived in a Nissen hut on the South Downs, “built up on stilts, with a laundry underneath”, which Howell and her two sisters would visit on summer Sundays and then go swimming in the sea at Rottingdean. All of these sensory elements were part of Howell’s original collections in the late 1970s and 1980s and they remain the cornerstones of her collections today. It is one thing to feel the associations of fabrics, it is another to bring them so consistently to life. “I don’t think I was consciously reacting to any of this,” she says, looking back on the five decades she is somewhat reluctantly (“it’s not really my thing”) celebrating. “I just had a sense of what I liked: clothes that were soft and casual and slightly oversized. I was always out of doors growing up and you needed clothes that you could move in easily.” Howell was born immediately after the war, in 1946, a fact that seems crucial to her aesthetic. She is a dozen years younger than Mary Quant, for example, and felt a different sense of liberation to the hedonism of the 1960s. She made her own clothes in her teens, but, she insists, putting the side of her hand to her jeans, her hemlines were never shorter than just above the knee. She was drawn rather to the understatement of Jean Muir. To the trouser suits of Yves Saint Laurent. “I loved the way that Katharine Hepburn wore men’s trousers,” she says, “or what seemed to be men’s trousers.” At school she remembers looking long and hard at the brown pin-striped suit of another female teacher, “which was deeply unfashionable, but which I knew I might be able to do something with”.
