Tiki will survive, even if tiki palaces do not. Pottery Barn Kids had a blackboard in the form of a tiki bar a few years back and regularly has Hawaiian aspects. If the next generation continues to go to Hawaii, they will still have the tikis at the Polynesian Cultural Center, the most visitied paid destination on the most visited Hawaiian island. Here at home, Trader Joes is bringing tiki into the daily experience, in some markets. Even Target carries tiki for the dorm room and as a garden accessory. Kohl's does too. Tiki will survive, even if real estate investors continue to sacrafice tiki palaces on the alter of development. |
