The Peak Leisure Club | Zaha Hadid | Via

In 1982, Zaha Hadid won the competition for a new private club located in the hills ofKowloon. The architect proposed a horizontal skyscraper formed by different layers in order to create a new artificial topography. These layers were designed as large cantilevered beams that came from the ground and float above the site. One of the most interesting features of the project is the recovery of the suprematism proposed by El Lissiztky among others during the Russian Avant Garde as a starting point of her careerr. The superposition of different horizontal layers builds the project, adapting the programs into the design. Moreover, the open spaces between the beams are also one of the most interesting parts of The Peak. These areas create dramatic spaces where Zaha Hadid introduces leisure programs as the swimming pool.
