Architects in Pākalā Village, HI

“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”

“We LOVED working with Rafael. He exceeded every expectation we had. His eye for design has completely set our home apart from other homes nearby. It takes our breath away every time we walk in the door.”

“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.”

“Architects Kauai took our basic house plan and made it fabulous, adding a huge veranda and columns in front and special details throughout. We are so happy with the work they did for us and appreciate it every day. No one does tropical architecture better.”

“Working with Rodney and Design Associates Kaua'i was so refreshing! He is a great listener and came up with ideas that we loved right away. After sketching our project by hand, he quickly 3D rendered it, giving us a real feeling for what the design would be like in person. We cannot recommend him highly enough. Thank you, Rodney, for helping us build our dream home.”

“I can’t say enough amazing things about this company. The thought of building our home was very daunting, but having Bonsai help me navigate through this process has been a dream. They are so knowledgeable and if there every was a hang up they took care of everything with such ease it made the process so much more enjoyable. Having them on my team I knew that our home is going to be my perfect oasis. Sam Martin is THE BEST. His personality, motivation, and his response time is unmatched. If you are ready to build your dream house, call Bonsai. You will not regret it.”

“We used Palms Hawaii for design and construction oversight services on a residential project on the island of Kauai. We were looking for a local partner for the project and were pleasantly surprised by the competence, responsiveness and service levels exhibited by the entire Palms team. They rapidly and successfully negotiated Kauai's byzantine building regulations and permitting processes, provided guidance and practical advice for designing a house that both meets our needs and fits the local climate, and shepherded us through the construction bid process. Once construction began, they ensured the house was built to specifications and worked closely with the builder to match the final product to the design vision. Notably, all agreed upon design deadlines were met and service costs were reasonable. We worked most closely with Andrea Lincoln, who treated us as if we were her only clients. She truly cared about our project and made great effort to ensure our satisfaction, a quality that was also exhibited by the other Palms staff we interacted with. If building on the island of Kauai, we can wholeheartedly recommend Palms Hawaii. We would not hesitate to use them on our next project.”
