Just 44 years old, which is young in a profession where practitioners often don't hit their stride until 60, Gang is one of the rising stars who have put new kick in Chicago's architectural tank after a decade of low-octane performance. Aqua, much hyped as one of the world's tallest skyscrapers designed by a female-headed firm, marks her leap from medium- to large-scale work. She is making a geographic leap, too, having just landed a major international commission — a 1.25-million-square-foot residential complex of towers and town homes in the big southern India city of Hyderabad.
