Designers can reach the media by posting their work at this Web site. The 2006 winner of Building Design+Construction magazine’s “Best of the Web” award, Plaid Robot hosts member-submitted high-res images, which the media can download with approval. Pitches and press releases can be sent to publications that register with the site. Editors and freelance writers can search for design work, but designers do not have access to each other’s posts. A message board is being developed for the media to post exactly what it is they are searching for.
