You must be referring to Hicks Homes. Yes that is really their name. Very practical for Hawai’i. Affordable, cool, durable. There are still plenty around because redwood doesn’t rot or get eaten by termites. I rode through the 7.8 earthquake in 1975 in a Hicks Home. It danced a mean hula. We laid in bed and rode it like a bucking bronco. Next morning we looked around and no damage to the structure. Single wall rocks! Really. Too bad we can’t have single wall homes anymore.
