Liljestrand House
Have you ever heard of the Liljestrand House up near the Tantalus Lookout off Tantalus Drive in Honolulu?
I toured it this past September and it was really neat to see on their private tour. You can book a tour online through this website -- https://www.liljestrandhouse.org/
The tour costs $20 (suggested donation) and I wouldn't recommend bringing children. I wore my 3 year old daughter on the tour and we didn't move through the house very quickly and she became rather bored and fidgety. A good day date with lunch before or dinner after?
"The Liljestrand House is an outstanding example of architect Vladimir Ossipoff’s work and of mid-twentieth century Hawaiian modern architecture. The mission of the Liljestrand Foundation is to preserve the house and to make that preservation purposeful by opening the house to the public for tours and for charitable, cultural, and educational activities.

Mr. Ossipoff’s designs are known for seamless integration of building and site, elegant orchestration of circulation, clever management of views, and creative mix of modern and natural materials."
