Arts & Culture
Set in Waikapu on Maui, the King Kamehameha Golf Course Clubhouse is notable less as a golf facility than as a rare realized building assembled from several unbuilt Frank Lloyd Wright house designs. Wright first developed the scheme in 1949, revised it in 1952 and 1957 for other clients, and left it unrealized at his death. Decades later, John Rattenbury adapted and enlarged those designs for a commercial clubhouse, completed in 1993. Built into rolling terrain with expansive views, the structure combines dramatic domes, a stained-glass feature derived from Wright’s earlier work, and a strong Hawaiian cultural presence through its art and landscape.
