The Liljestrand House, designed by renowned architect Vladimir Ossipoff for Howard and Betty Liljestrand, is a masterful example of mid-20th-century modern architecture nestled in the lush hills of Honolulu, Hawaii. Completed in 1952, the house seamlessly integrates indoor and outdoor living, reflecting Ossipoff's philosophy of "Hawaiian modernism." The design features extensive use of natural materials, such as wood and stone, large sliding glass doors, and expansive lanais that offer breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. The house's open floor plan and thoughtful attention to climate and site-specific conditions underscore Ossipoff's commitment to creating harmonized spaces with their environment.
The Liljestrand Foundation, established by the Liljestrand family, aims to preserve and share the architectural and cultural significance of the Liljestrand House. The foundation provides educational programs, tours, and events to foster appreciation for Ossipoff's work and the broader context of mid-century modern design in Hawaii. By maintaining the house and its original furnishings, the foundation offers a unique glimpse into the lifestyle and aesthetic values of the period, ensuring that future generations can experience and learn from this architectural wonder.
