The King Kamehameha Golf Club

A golf club in Maui was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright. It wasn't built until the 1990s, wall after it was planned on his design. We visited, and it was cool.


It is hasn't aged well, but part of that is the color of the building. Frank's plans seemed to call for a color somewhere between the orange of his favorite Wood Lilly and the rust color of the soil in Maui.

It looks more like baby food pale. Something a toddler might throw up after tasting mulch.

 

Aside from the color, it looks pretty darn cool. Now, from above, it is a bit of a penis shape, but you don't get that at ground level. We did happen to helicopter over it, and the penis outline is inescapable. But here are some pictures.
