Lava rock doesn't seem to be successful in concrete or as a wall building material, but I wonder if maybe it would be useful for building a berm home, with some kind of local wood with locally sourced preservative for the actual living area. Berm homes might be desirable as we have more extreme winds.
Some local students also demonstrated that albizia wood could be used for building. That stuff grows fast, so that would be kinda sustainable.
We also have miles and miles of lava tubes, layer over layer. Wonder if anyone has seriously tried to partition them and live in them?
