Expansive Hawaiian Homes

This Stunning Beachfront Home is Made Up of Three Connected Huts

— October 27, 2015 — Art & Design
Olson Kundig designed a stunning beachfront home that is perched on a West Maui cliff. When it comes to beachfront homes, the view is the most important thing to consider. This single-story home offers world-class views of Hawaii's famous sunsets.

The 'Slaughterhouse Beach House' combines stunning architecture with the beauty of the natural environment. The home is made up of three connected huts that span the rocky shoreline. The hut that houses the main living area features twin window walls, which lift up and open the space up to the sea. The design not only takes advantage of the incredible views, but it also helps to let cool air in and filter hot air out.

The unique beachfront home demonstrates that designers don't always need to build upwards in order to capture the best view.
