Adapting
Alongside the Pukele Stream, this existing single-wall T&G home received an update to adapt to its new owners’ desires. Interior renovations include the layout and lighting design of the kitchen and bathroom along with a master bedroom and closet expansion. The entry stairs and landing are replaced in kind to ensure structural stability. Exterior additions consist of a new covered lanai off the master bedroom and a covered laundry area.

Blending
This home remains a traditional Hawaiian home with fresh finishes integrating existing finishes where necessary. The introduction of new material adds a bit more modern character. Outside, a roof addition spans the new deck and laundry area, seamlessly integrating with the existing roof. Board and batten siding remains in the overall appearance of the home however, a light blue paint gives this home the refined feeling it deserves.
In the kitchen, shaker cabinets maintain a traditional feel and match existing flooring. A clean, bright countertop and large island provide a polished, elegant look. In the master bedroom, a large custom closet and updated sliding door provide a contemporary sensibility.
