She then joined the Office of Metropolitan Architecture, began teaching at the Architectural Association and later led her own studio at the AA London until 1987. Her international breakthrough came with the Vitra Fire Station in Weil am Rhein. She was the first woman to win the Pritzker Prize (2004) and has received many more awards for her work.
