Pöhaku The Art &amp; Architecture of Stonework in Hawai'i This is a book for everyone who stops and admires a stone building or structure whether it is a church, residence, bridge or school building. Pausing, the viewer may wonder: who built it, why, and perhaps, how did they build it? Pöhaku is a collection of about 100 pöhaku (stone) structures in Hawai'i. More than 50 essayists: leading architects, journalists, historians, archivists and those who simply love stone architecture tell their story.
