Frank Lloyd Wright (June 8, 1867 – April 9, 1959) was an American
architect, designer, writer, and educator. He designed more than
1,000 structures over a creative period of 70 years. Wright believed
in designing in harmony with humanity and the environment, a
philosophy he called organic architecture. This philosophy was
exemplified in Fallingwater (1935), which has been called "the best
all-time work of American architecture."[1] Wright played a key role
in the architectural movements of the twentieth century, influencing
generations of architects worldwide through his works.

Dame Zaha Mohammad Hadid DBE RA (Arabic: ‫زها حديد‬
Zahā Ḥadīd; 31 October 1950 – 31 March 2016) was a
British Iraqi architect, artist and designer, recognised as a
major figure in architecture of the late 20th and early 21st
centuries. Born in Baghdad, Iraq, Hadid studied
mathematics as an undergraduate and then enrolled at the
Architectural Association School of Architecture in 1972.
In search of an alternative system to traditional
architectural drawing, and influenced by Suprematism and
the Russian avant-garde, Hadid adopted painting as a
design tool and abstraction as an investigative principle to
"reinvestigate the aborted and untested experiments of
Modernism [...] to unveil new fields of building.
