This post is a survey of architect Stephen Oyakawa’s projects on Oahu that I have had the pleasure to view and photograph.

Oyakawa studied and worked for fourteen years with Frank Lloyd Wright.

Architect Corner - Frank Lloyd Wright, Marin County Civic Center

After landing at Oakland Airport last year, my son the architect whisked me straight away to Frank Lloyd Wright’s Marin County Civic Center - a perfect start for our time together in the Bay Area!

Architect Corner - Frank Lloyd Wright, Fallingwater

Visiting Frank Lloyd Wright’s masterpiece Fallingwater was certainly the architecture highlight of our recent visit to Pittsburgh. Before our trip, I mentioned where I was headed to a fellow yogi, an interior designer, and she exclaimed that Fallingwater was on her bucket list of places to visit. I’m glad I was able to scratch off someone’s bucket list item!
