Her final project was an eight-piece jewellry collection for Jensen, a historic Danish jeweller. The collection was presented at Miami Baselworld along with an installation, used as a lounge in the exhibition hall. The layered series, consisting of three bracelets and five rings, was designed with 3D printing, then handmade with silver, black rhodium and studded in black diamonds. Zaha commented that she wanted to apply her creative approach to something one could wear, reinterpreting the brand’s long tradition into innovative ornaments.

The Moodboarders is a glance into the design world, which, in all of its facets, captures the extraordinary even within the routine. It is a measure of the times. It is an antenna sensitive enough to pick-up on budding trends, emerging talents and neglected aesthetics. Instead of essays, we use brief tales to tune into the rhythm of our world. We travelled for a year without stopping, and seeing as the memory of this journey has not faded, we have chosen to edit a printed copy. We eliminated anything episodic, ephemeral or fading, maintaining a variety of articles that flow, without losing the element of surprise, the events caught taking place, and the creations having just bloomed.
