“We had a great experience with Phillip White, Laura Ayers and staff when building our new home in Manoa. They are professional, friendly, responsive to our needs as well as giving us superb ideas for the creation of our new home. They worked as a positive team, that really got along on all levels. Their working environment made us feel comfortable and welcome. We highly recommend them for any new clients/projects.”

“Victor "Dean" Sinco is an excellent architect and he has an excellent team of drafts-people at Entheos. He is both creative and practical. He comes up with ideas that look good but are also cost-effective. He knows how to make new construction match original construction. He is great at supervising the work and coming up with solutions on the spot for any problems. He has always responded to me in a timely way. He has done both large and small projects for me. For one large project, he designed a guest suite addition to my house that added a laundry, kitchen, and screened porch to an existing bedroom and bath. At the same time he designed a roof extension, a new laundry room plus a solar water heater room, and a complete renovation of two bathrooms, one of them handicap. A few years later, he turned a walk-in closet into a half-bath plus a smaller closet and turned garage storage into interior storage. Recently, he designed a fence, gate, and lanai for me. I will continue to use him for any future projects.”

“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!”

“Bill Benjamin is brilliant when working with clients. He is the only architect in Honolulu who will fully collaborate with clients and not impose his artistic views as is the case with many other local architects. He is also highly intelligent and can solve many problems of design and construction that other architects have problems with.”

“Fujuita+Netski are a powerful punch for architecture and design. We hired them to work on our 1946 Manoa Hawaiian home. They kept the essense of it's style but transported it smoothly into 2012. The team are well trained professionals that team up with a contractor, H1 construction. Together they worked seemlessly to meet you to make your dreams come true. All along they way they showed us what our kitchen would look like with power point presentations, laser models or watercolors. We did an entire kitchen remodel including demoing 2 walls and reframing rooms took approximately 2 months. Our goal was to keep a clean classic Hawaiian plantation feel of Manoa with modern clean lines. The final product looks like it has always been there. They incorperated several unique items like a moveable island, surfboard racks shaped like paddles and gave us a walk in pantry. The flooring is holding up great and we can cook with all our friends with lots of space. We added some modern bling with the dark countertops and kept shaker style cabinets that are so high quality they make hardly any noise when they shut. The back splash was made just for us too, its 3 large pieces of tempered glass painted the color of the ocean. perfect for 2 surfers. Fujita+Netski is not afraid to try new daring things (notice the octupus wallpaper) and can pull them off with style. Not only are they friendly and talented the product is exactly what you want at the end of the process. We saw the team at least 2-3 times a week . They are easily available via text message or email. You will be happy and cannot lose with their sense of design.”

“Kris is very professional and dedicated to her work. She loves working with people and tailors her services to best suit each and every project. We enjoyed working with her!”

“This project was so fun to be a part of! The team at Bento Box was great to work with, and we are really impressed with how well the Bento Home turned out. They made excellent use of our Fleetwood doors and windows to make the home feel very open, the space saving designs they used for the interior are extremely intelligent, and the warm finishes have you feeling right at home immediately; making this the best ADU we have ever seen in Hawaii!”
