There is no place like home, esp. when the house is located in Hawaii, on the island of Oahu. There is so much truth to this statement. So when a family member asked if I wanted to design their home, I was more than happy to do it. No pressure, right? We began with a very humble home(see image above) , a 1-story post-beam and T&G house and ended up with a 2-story structure with a carport. Simplicity and subtle elegance by creating a simple front facade and creating lots of shadow and texture on the sides and rear of the property. But I feel the most important thing that makes a place stand out is the details. They say "God is in the details." This project was by far a great way of making an excuse to visit the islands and my family. You can view more pics of the project by clicking here
