Architectural works of art in Puna

Yes Steely works are much like the most influential architect in the modern world. Few, outside of Chicago and architectural school know how Chicago owing to Wright and much more importantly Mies was the birthplace of modern architecture.

Tricky's home qualifies in my book to be on this Puna list owing to the incorporation of the lava flow as a central feature of the home.
Other Steely homes in Puna have not done this as well. Steely did not have a lot backing against the flow for the other homes to work with.

So indeed yes, to you and me, we think Farnsworth when we see his works.

Another element in favor of the Tricky home is construction with some local material. Although, I would have to point some out. The patio floor isn't tile. It is sliced lava rock. More noticeable are his stairs that are local wood.

Finally the Tricky home has a breezeway that separates his music room from his formal living room. I term that room the music room owing to it having a piano.
