Hagia Sophia is considered as the epitome of Byzantine architecture and is said

to have “changed the history of architecture”. It was the largest cathedral in the
world for nearly a thousand years until Seville cathedral was completed in 1520.
The current building was originally constructed as a church between 532 and 537
on the orders of the Byzantine Emperor Justinian and was the third Church of the
Holy Wisdom to occupy the site, the previous two having both been destroyed by
rioters. It was designed by the Greek scientists Isidore of Miletus, a physicist and
Anthemius of Tralles, a mathematician. The church contained a large collection
of holy relics and featured among others things, a 49 foot (15m) silver
iconostasis. This was the seat of the Patriarch of Constantinople and the
religious focal point of the Eastern Orthodox Church for nearly one thousand
years. It is the church in which Cardinal Humbert in 1054 excommunicated
Michael I Cerularius which is commonly considered the start of the Great Schism.
In 1204, European soldiers of the Fourth Crusade sacked and plundered
Constantinople and began a 57-year occupation of the city. During that time, the
Hagia Sophia was converted from the seat of Eastern Orthodoxy into a Roman
Catholic cathedral; its treasures were pillaged and carried away to cathedrals and
monasteries in Italy, France and England. Much of the booty was taken to a
Cathedral in Venice, where it can still be seen today. In 1453, Constantinople was
conquered by the Ottoman Turks under Sultan Mehmed II, who subsequently
ordered the building converted into a mosque. The bells, altar, iconostasis and
sacrificial vessel were removed and many of the mosaic were plastered over
Islamic features such as the mihrab, minbar and four minarets were added while
in the possession of the Ottomans. It remained a mosque until 1931 when it was
closed to the public for four years. It was re-opened in 1935 as a museum by the
Republic of Turkey.

Eileen Gray. The name of the house E-1027, is a code of Eileen Gray and Jean
Badovici, “E” standing for Eileen, “10” for Jean, “2” for Badovici and “7” for Gray. The
coded name was Eileen Gray’s way of showing their relationship as lovers at the time
when the house was built. This house actually became more famous when another
famous architect became a house guest and vandalized it (according to Gray) by
painting bright murals on its plain white walls… sometimes in the nude. The architecture
critic Rowan Moore said the murals were “an act of naked phallocracy… adding that this
famous architect was “seemingly affronted that a woman could create such a fine work
of modernism” so he “asserted his dominion, like a urinating dog, over a territory”. Since
Eileen Gray was so sow at putting her name forward as being the architect of the house
for many years, many historians mistakenly thought this “famous architect” was actually
its designer. Who was this architect?
