Take a look at this picture again. I can just imagine having 3 HUGE tikis (my personal preference of ChikiTiki, TikiTony & CrazyAl pieces) where the current three large bush-thingies stand on front of the rock wall (also remove that little bush on front of the rock wall). The lights on the ground are already positioned! Remove the three furthermost left bushes (keeping the sago at the front door), and placing a huge BenzArt mask on the flat wall! Now that would be bringing tiki & modernism together!
