Thread modification!: Mid-century revival? I got your mid-century house right here:

http://www.mkd-arc.com/whatwedo/breezehouse/index.cfm


It's called the breezehouse. It is perfect for Hawaii (and there is one, on Maui I am told). The signature is a butterfly roof that pulls the air up and then out. The back of the house has an enormous folding glass door. Basically, the house is an air mover. It is completely green, and very efficient. They do ship to Hawaii. It is much more expensive than a Big Island package house. And something about the style doesn't really work for me that well. But it is very practical for the climate. Oh, wait, were we talking about airlines?

I am taking Go from LIH to HILO, so I will let you know!



Yes, that is one of the Sunset Mag prefab houses. DWELL mag has them too.Funny, I was thinking about this as a perfect idea for a Puna Lot, but the shipping like you mentioned would just kill the whole deal.
I don't know how these houses are doing here on the mainland, if they're selling or not, because of people's infatuation of McMansions and Square footage.
With the cost of shipping, I wonder if it's just cheaper to build one.
The issue with that great folding glass door is...no screen door....
As mentioned in the other thread about mosquitos, I imagine that would be a problem in Puna :-0
