House of the Day: Pauling House by Vladimir Ossipoff

March 3rd, 2017

This article is more than a year old and may contain information that is out of date. Sorry about that.

The Pauling House was built in 1957 by the Hawaiian Modernist Vladimir ‘Val’ Ossipoff, and sits high up in the hills above downtown Honolulu.

It is accessed by a steep driveway, flanked by towering bamboo, and is sited in such a way that it appears to be bursting forth from the natural landscape.
