In 2012, the owner of Frederick Kiesler prize that is traditionally awarded in the New Museum in new York, was a Californian artist Andrea Zittel. The prize is awarded once in 2 years non-professional artists, whose works combine sustainability and innovation in architecture.

Zittel's work was shown in the network before, but she was still relatively unknown master in the world of design. Upon receiving the award, Frederick Kiesler, it is likely to change.

A design feature of the Van A-Z is a tiny living space, which satisfies on the one hand satisfies all the needs of man, and on the other allows to clutter his house a pile of unnecessary things, as it happens quite often. In addition, the construction can be easily installed on almost any landscape and does not require the installation of foundations.
