I took an odd street of a main drag today and an apartment building with swell mid-century lines and materials caught my eye. Then I noticed a large irregularly shaped object on the side of the building, by the apartment name. My Tiki senses tingled. I drew closer and saw that the apartment was named Islander and the irregular shape was an approximately 4 feet tall and three feet wide "islander" face (not quite human, not quite Tiki) which looked very Witco-esque in style and was executed in that Japanese burned wood technique. The rest of the building didn't seem to have any other island elements. Not an amazing find, but it's always great to come across the big chunks of Polynesian Pop.
