Peter Lik’s Hawaii Home!
Peter Lik's Hawaii Home!
Must SeeTop 10 Florida Condos For SalePeter Lik is the first landscape photographer since Ansel Adams to take photography into the realm of fine art. Taking his first photo at the age of eight with a small box camera given to him by his parents, he was bitten by the bug that brought him the well-earned success he experiences today. He has sold to an unnamed buyer his Ghost photograph for $6.5 million and now with at least 13 galleries around the U.S., he sells over $1.5 million worth of photographs every week. We see the word "edge" associated with Lik on his website, books and videos as well as the series he did for the Weather Channel, On the Edge with Peter Lik. Of course he’s on the cutting edge of photography, but more importantly he’s on the edge of a volcano, the edge of a precipice and on the edge of anything that will get him into position for the perfect photograph. Dangerous? You bet. Brilliant? Hands down. He waits, he fiddles around and checks and then waits again for the perfect light to appear that will illuminate his subject to perfection. And what he usually gets is brain-bursting color of a slice of the natural world. Peter Lik is passionate and driven to introduce raw nature in a way very few people will ever see in person. With his first gallery located in Lahaina, Maui, it was where he made his home until moving his headquarters to Las Vegas.
The 4,013-square-foot, three pod, beach hut-styled home pays homage to Hawaiian history and is situated on a 6.5-acre conservation zoned rocky bluff overlooking Honolua Bay and Mokule'ia Bay in Kapalua with Crescent Beach below. The three bedroom, 3.5 bath home features eight of Peter's photographic masterpieces, which will convey with the sale. Tom Kundig of Olson Kundig Architects expanded upon the concept of a traditional surf hut in this award-winning design. The three separate huts, each private but connected, include a main living area with media room, a guest wing, and a master suite with a den/lounge. Rammed earth walls and cement floors allow for the natural Pacific breeze to easily ventilate each hut. The outside comes inside, as 80 feet of steel-framed glass doors controlled by hydraulics open to completely expand the living space. For more information.
