“We hired Envision Design Build to help us design our kitchen remodel in conjunction with a large sliding glass door. We knew we wanted to open up the kitchen, add an island and create an indoor/outdoor feel and accessibility to the backyard patio. Envision took the time to create a plan that not only worked well within the space, but also worked best for our family. The project came out better than we could have imagined! Many thanks Gazelle & Parker!”

“Rex is a fantastic professional. He did an amazing job of fully understanding the vision of my project. Any changes that I wanted or needed he was very quick to complete and discuss. Rex also has a great ability to communicate with his clients as well as with contractors and government officials. His attention detail and understanding of not only architecture but of the entire construction process was a huge help. I would highly recommend Rex and his company to any of my friends or colleagues and will absolutely use him again.”
Paul M. Donoho, Architect

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 3, 2013
“We can't say enough good things about Paul Donoho. He is the ultimate professional. He was a pleasure to work with, his design work is exceptional as is his attention to detail. He had just the right balance between listening to us, the homeowners, while providing his experienced opinion. He had a great relationship with the contractor, creating a positive working relationship with him while still representing our interest. Even though we had built a home before, Paul provided a level of skill and experience that we could never come close to and we felt completely comfortable relying on his expertise. Having Paul on board throughout the process until the end of construction was extremely valuable.”

“Amanda Hughes is a very talented designer who has helped us redesign and reconstruct our home. She is professional, personable, and positive to work with and is prompt to answering questions and returning calls. We feel so fortunate to have had her lead us through the building process by helping us find quality products: flooring, tile, cabinets, vanities, etc. at a reasonable price. We highly recommend Amanda to help you create your quality dream home, like she has been able to help us rebuild ours. Sincerely, Hannibal, Joy, Riga, Mika Grubis Family”

“Archipelago did an outstanding job designing our home. From the beginning of the planning, they were on top of things every step of the way. Their dedication, attention to detail and follow through far exceeded our expectations. They were worth every dime. I most strongly recommend their work. ”
Pu'uwai Design & Construction
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Hawaii
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJuly 2, 2014
“Unlike most of people that live on the mainland that built a home in Kauai, we do not have any horror stories to share. I believe that’s because we had an open dialog with Puuwai Construction. The building of our home was a seamless process that kept everyone in the loop and there was never a surprise. With that said, we highly recommend Puu’wai as probably the best construction company on the island of Kauai. Mahalo, ~Holt & Margo Cloward”

Is the scope of your home design project beyond simply replacing countertops or flooring? It’s the responsibility of a Hawaii home architect to transform human needs and desires into visual concepts and habitable structures. When you hire an architectural designer, you are not only hiring someone for their architectural services, but also to manage and coordinate other parties involved in the project. As you search through local Hawaii architectural firms and designers, keep in mind the following tips to help you choose the perfect one: 

How do I find the best Hawaii residential design architect for my project?


It is best to hire a residential architect who will be involved in all phases of the design process, from the initial concept to the completed construction. They are often the first person you will hire for your project, and it's common for architects' contractors, or subcontractors, to prefer working with one another, which means better relationships and smoother work on your home. Interior architects are also involved in negotiating contracts for all involved participants, from builders, to engineers and even landscapers. It is for these reasons that it is extremely important for you to have a good relationship with the Hawaii residential architect you hire. He or she can be the tie-breaking vote between you and the general contractor and can be your biggest advocate during the construction process. Different residential architecture firms in Hawaii provide different services, so the scope of the work can span from pre-design environmental impact studies to selecting furniture and finishes, depending on what your specific needs are.

Questions to ask prospective Hawaii interior architects:


  • What is your fee structure?
  • What does the cost include?
  • Do you have professional liability insurance?
  • Can you handle my special requests (ADA, LEED etc.)?
  • What types of renderings (3D, video, illustrative) will you produce?
  • What is your experience with similar projects?
  • When do you expect to start and be finished with the project?
  • What do your services include? (It's best that the services are until construction is completed.)
  • What happens when the cost exceeds the budget?
  • Can you provide me with references?
  • Would you say your work has a defining style? (This is important in case the architect's personal style will interfere with your vision.)
  • Will you help with hiring a general contractor and subcontractors?
  • What do you estimate the cost will be?
  • What will I need to provide?
  • Are there any complications you foresee with this project?
