I have Big Island fever too actually Honokaa fever but I recall my visceral reaction walking thru a slab house last year. My creeping paranoia told me that house would get flooded out in a hard rain. Then my perspective is having lived pretty much all my life on post & pier house in Honolulu where when you look out the window you look over the community or in the case of the Big Island over the landscape. I didn't know how much of a difference it made until I saw that house in Honokaa at least in my little paranoid mind!
I like the Filipino style houses in Waipahu and Kalihi where the first floor is the garage on a slab covered by the living space on the second floor.
Others call it cookie cutter- I call it FFF- form follows function.
Others want to make friends- I just want to make money.
