Mapping out tiki in Orange County, Calif. - General Tiki

Most of the rock on these houses aren't original. It was lava up until a couple of years ago. The green house used to have a wooden footbridge going over a little stream and the tropical foliage was dense. I think it would be hard to deny the island influence on the architecture of this house (down on the Newport peninsula). The lava rock wall, the decorative roof supports, the A-frame... There are others just like this, down on the peninsula as well. Is it tiki? Are any of these tiki?? I don't know anymore. Does it need a tiki to be considered tiki? Or can it have polynesian design elements to bring it there? Spike http://www.facebook.com/thehulagirls http://www.thehulagirlsmusic.com [ Edited by: Luckydesigns 2012-06-21 10:13 ]
