Abstract
The Cyrus and Amy Loo Residence is approved for Criterion C (Architecture and Engineering). It is a good example of Honolulu architect Vladimir Ossipoff’s residential work of the early 1950s. Rendered in a modern style the house is typical of Ossipoff’s work with its fine attention to detail, the use of Asian Elements, and efficient maximization of space. Nestled into its site, overlooking the Makiki Forest Reserve, the house not only maximizes the outward views of distant Diamond Head and the city, but also the immediate ambiance of the surrounding wilderness, with large windows in the bedrooms looking out on the pristine jungle settling.
