Wow! I've never ever seen a building made of volcanic rock, that is *really* cool! And the dichotomy between these two photos is very entertaining :) Great post!
The volcanic rock looks like pumice that would crumble easily. Yet it seems like a very old building so it must be a sturdy rock. It's not a very attractive building material!
The volcanic rock is a neat building medium - much more stylish and rustic than concrete...the Palace in Wellington is beautiful, the brilliant white facade and red window frames have an almost art-deco elegance. It is a great building that stands the test of time...

I like that little window.

Great post!
The bottom building looks so shiny clean compared to the volcanic rock!
The top window is cute, too.

The Auckland window is especially attractive I think. And so is the stone wall made of volcanic rock.
