For Sale: Unique 3-Bedroom Octagonal Home in Haiku, Maui, Hawaii

The octagonal home.

It first became popular on the North American mainland in the late 19th century, although its recorded history dates back thousands of years.

Throughout history, the octagon shape has been a symbolic architectural theme representing regeneration, rebirth and renewal. In Buddhism it means completion. In Chinese, it symbolizes good luck and completeness. In Hebrew, it is the number of the Lord. In Taoism, it denotes the eight immortals, and in Christianity it denotes the eight beatitudes. 

One of the advantages of an octagonal design is that the shape encloses space more efficiently than its counterpart, the square. An octagon has approximately 20 percent more space than a square with the same perimeter. An octagonal structure permits more natural light, aiding in the reduction of electric bills for illumination. 

From a livability standpoint, octagonal designs allow for panoramic views and easier orientation on the building site. Octagonal homes permit 360 degree views, making them very popular in vacation and scenic destinations, such as on the beach or the side of a mountain.
