Hawaiian Garden Hale
Kamuela, HAWAII
Lead Architect for residential New Construction and Remodel
Contractor: Kauhale Kilohana

A thoughtful transformation of an existing Hawaiian home, this residential project added 956 square feet of new living space — two bedrooms, a laundry room, and storage — to the original 2,264-square-foot residence. The addition was designed seamlessly in the same style as the existing home, preserving its character while expanding its functionality for family life.
Alongside the remodel, a new 920-square-foot detached accessory structure was created as a dedicated space for recreation and dance, complemented by a covered lanai for outdoor gatherings.
Nestled into lush gardens and vibrant landscaping, the home and studio embrace the natural beauty of the Hawaiian setting, with pathways, courtyards, and shaded porches that invite connection to the land and a sense of serenity throughout.
"Recently, Jen helped us design a renovation/addition of our new home as well as a new, stand-alone multi-purpose space. We are delighted with the outcome. We moved into our renovated home about four months ago and couldn't be happier. The details we discussed came out beautifully and the house simply "flows"." —Mimi & Brian Kerley, Homeowners
