Frank Lloyd Wright is arguably the greatest ever American architect. In Frank Lloyd Wright: The Man Who Built America, we go on a journey to find out how he earned this title.

ON THE WORLD STAGE

You will have seen this Puhoi bach before. In 2017 it captured the imagination of the world. A viral sensation, the home has been viewed on social media channels like Archipro and ADNZ close to a million times. It was featured on Seven Sharp, Stuff.co.nz, archdaily.com and many more international architecture and lifestyle publications. It was also a 2017 ADNZ Resene Architectural Design Award winner. As a result of the design’s popularity, the designer received several hundred enquiries both locally and off-shore. In today’s Defign blog we explore how he handled the subsequent media attention, project enquiry and his advice to any designers looking to reap the benefits of an award win.
