Born in Kent and educated in New Zealand; he became one of Australiarsquo;s leading mid-century architects; of luxury residences and commercial buildings; and a trend-setting designer of furniture; interiors and landscapes. This is the first comprehensive study of Snellingrsquo;s pan-Pacific life; works and trans-disciplinary significance. It provides a critical examination of this controversial modernist; revealing him to be a colourful and talented protagonist who led antipodean interpretations of American; especially Wrightian and southern Californian; architecture; design and lifestyle innovations.?
