This dramatically cantilevered “island in the sky” immediately conveys a jet-age image of modernity. The smooth concrete and glass, 868-square foot executive office is cantilevered out from a three-story pylon. It adds a gravity-defying tension to the building's already dynamic interplay of horizontal and vertical thrusts. The pylon’s Arizona sandstone veneer on its sleek streamlined horizontality was a popular material in Hawaii from the late 1940s through the early 1960s. The building's combination of materials--sandstone walls, smooth concrete lanai railings, cast stone columns, wrought-iron stair rails, and tile pavers--also typifies the period. This L-shaped structure was originally two stories in height and the cantilevered office and third story were added in 1967.
