Hale Nukumoi is the quintessential Hawaiian beach house: open, casual, and unfussy.
Adjacent to a popular public beach, the house makes skillful use of oversized sliding doors, a custom rainscreen, and layered plantings to provide much-needed privacy when desired.
The Kalihiwai Pavilion is the newest addition to a lush oceanfront property.
With its emphasis on transparency, the design takes full advantage of Hawaii’s ocean breezes while its material palette was chosen to withstand the harsh exposure of tropical rains and sun.
The Quintessa Pavilions are the newest addition to Quintessa Estate, a winery and residence located in Rutherford, Calif.
The architecture of the three open-air pavilions blends into the contours of the property while offering a rustic experience evocative of picnicking under an oak tree.
Truly at one with the landscape, the home’s material palette of Aegean limestone, western red cedar, zinc and board-formed concrete make it feel one with its surroundings.
Nestled on an east facing bluff of the Tiburon Peninsula, the Tiburon Bay View residence provides sweeping views of the San Francisco Bay while acting as a natural buffer from the road and neighboring houses.
The rustic stone barn, reminiscent of a beautiful ruin that has long stood on the land, stands at the front of the property, acting as a visual threshold and symbol of the updated rural vernacular.
The Kahua Kuili residence has been awarded an AIA Honolulu Award of Excellence in the Residential category.
The Kahua Kuili residence is a modern interpretation of the classic Hawai’i summer camp. In keeping with the firm’s design philosophy, the warm, yet spacious abode was designed with longevity in mind.
