London's Design Museum has just added her Liquid Glacial Table to a shortlist for their Designs of the Year 2013 awards. Hadid's Galaxy Soho complex in Beijing was also nominated for the same award.
The four-part dining table was commissioned for the David Gill Gallery in March of 2012, and is made of entirely smooth acrylic resin with the ripples and waves below the surface. "The table’s legs seem to pour from the horizontal in an intense vortex of water frozen in time," the description says on the Zaha Hadid Architects website. "The transparent acrylic material amplifies this perception; adding depth and complexity through a flawless display of infinite kaleidoscopic refractions."
This is not the first piece of furniture Hadid's architecture firm has unveiled. Previous tables, vases, and benches from Zaha Hadid Architects also have the same fluid forms and intriguing shapes her buildings are known for.
