In 1954, Harry Seckel wrote a book for #aiahonolulu and the #bishopmuseum called "Hawaiian Residential Architecture." In it, he explained the environmental influences that typically dictate a regional architectural style - isolation, materials, economic conditions, climate and setting. But the only factor that made Hawaii's architecture unique and cohesive was environmental living. "The Islander lives in proximity to sea and mountains of surpassing beauty. He lives near trees, flowers, and shrubbery that are in evidence throughout the year. He lives in an incomparable climate. But he has not yet found the means for fully enjoying all this. To live in full and constant intimacy with his surroundings would require a very special dwelling designed for a manner of living that has not yet evolved." 10 years later he designed this collection of homes deep in Manoa. #tropicalarchitecture #tropicalmodern #midcenturymodern #midcentury #hawaiimodern #hawaiiarchitecture #architecture #docomomohi #harryseckel (at Woodlawn)

Enjoyed the GORGEOUS #bishopmuseum this morning. What an incredible treasure of history, culture, and stories. I loved seeing the art in functional pieces used daily by the indigenous Hawaiians! #livingart #livingculture #hawaii2020🌺 (at Bernice Pauahi Bishop Museum) https://www.instagram.com/p/B90Or0jgggF/?igshid=j2pynnuh0y57
