Timothy Allen talks with Shajay Bhooshan Shajay runs the computation and design group at Zaha Hadid Architects and he worked on the designs for some well known Free City projects including Próspera, Praxis and Liberland's metaverse project. Zaha Hadid definitely work at the sharp end of the wedge as far as using innovative technologies goes and speaking to Shajay gave me a peek into the future of architectural design and city planning along with digital fabrication of virtual places. Spoiler alert: Shajay predicts that one day Zaha Hadid will generate more revenue from the digital realm than from the physical. I would never have predicted that. Enjoy the conversation.
