Abstract
The William and Margaret Crockett residence is a single story white, masonry, L-shaped home perched on a cliff overlooking the Pacific Ocean and a stone shelf shoreline 25 feet below. It’s located in a quiet residential neighborhood near Portlock on O‘ahu and was designed by Guy Zebert and constructed in 1970. The residence is significant on the local level under Criterion C as a good example of a Modern style house built in Honolulu during the early 1970s. Typical elements of the style include its strong, unadorned, clean lines and flat-appearing roofs, flowing, generous-sized interior spaces and myriad large expanses of windows and sliding doors instilling a strong sense of openness. Other notable features include travertine floors and white walls and ceilings which enhance the light, airy feeling in the interior environment; wood slats in the doors, vertical jalousie clerestory and strong emphasis on air movement through the house. In addition, the extensive use of koa for built-in furniture further ties the very modern design to the Islands.
