(Background and Purpose) Architectural design of Zaha Hadid, a representing deconstructivist architect in modern architecture has been applied to representative buildings in each city of the world. Especially, despite sense of cultural difference of the region, burden for high taxes and continuous maintenance cost are expected for public buildings, her architectural project has still been pushed forward vigorously even after her death. Thus, the study aims to analyze and evaluate philosophical meanings and characteristics of expression involved in her architecture in terms of constructivist philosophy that has served as the foundation of Zaha Hadid`s architectural works exceeding general evaluations on Zaha Hadid`s architectural design that are divided into two. Of her architectural characteristics, the study especially selected an aspect of attempting spatial & temporal communication in various forms in both interior·exterior space of architecture, and aims to investigate differance expressional characteristics of space-time concept focusing on the works immediately before her death. (Methodology) To analyze differance expressional characteristics of space-time concept shown in Zaha Hadid`s architecture, the study examined and analyzed the previous studies to collect the typical characteristics and analytical methods clearly, and analyzed her recent architectural examples that use and function are not overlapped out of architectural projects she designed and completed from 2010 to before her death in 2016, and then concluded by integrating such case analyses. (Result) Differance expressional characteristics of relative space-time concept produced through the previous studies are shown as uncertain concept (openness, asymmetry, irregularity), multiview concept(simultaneity, reiteration) and dynamic visual concept(dynamic, antigravity, transparency). As a result of analyzing Zaha Hadid`s works based on the foregoing, asymmetry is most strongly shown in the uncertain concept, reiteration in multiview concept and dynamic in dynamic visual concept respectively, and characteristic which is most strongly shown in the overall cases is reiteration, whereas transparancy was shown the most weakly. While differance expressional characteristics of relative space-time concept is shown the most variously and strongly in public buildings out of selected cases, it was shown relatively weakly in residential or office buildings. (Conclusion) She had put dynamics to interior and exterior space in the buildings using various differance expressional characteristics of relative space-time concept beyond Euclidean geometry preferred in the existing architecture - and had continually expressed differance characteristic of space-time concept using mobility of clashes and crosses. Along the way, her architectural work makes people`s time during their stay in the space differance and cross-linked, and makes them experience new space with many sides and layers. This study, by analyzing and integrating the previous studies, examined differance expressional characteristics of space-time space as shown in recent work of deconstructivist architect Zaha Hadid. The study believes that in the contemporary society where the importance of various needs and relative values is emphasized more than ever, Zaha Hadid`s architectural philosophy highlighting differance expression must be a factor that should still be considered deeply in plenty of architectural work to be carried on in the future. The researchers hope further research be conducted in regard to other various differance expressional characteristics of her work besides relative space-time concept, and we dare expect that the findings of this study could help people understand deconstructivist architecture besides the work world of Zaha Hadid.
