Designing Homes for the Kohanaiki Community

Studio Palomino offers interior design services for homeowners in the Kohanaiki community on the Big Island of Hawaiʻi. Whether you're building a new residence, renovating an existing one, or furnishing your vacation home, our team can help you design a space that feels personal and deeply connected to its surroundings.

The homes in Kohanaiki reflect a sophisticated and relaxed lifestyle, often blending contemporary architecture with the natural beauty of the Kona coast. There’s a strong emphasis on indoor-outdoor living, with spaces flowing seamlessly from the main living areas to lanais and courtyards. We understand how to work with natural materials, such as tropical wood, woven textures, and stone, to create luxurious and grounded interiors. Our approach focuses on creating beautiful, functional spaces that serve as a quiet backdrop for daily life, whether entertaining guests or enjoying a peaceful sunset.

The homes here are known for their curated, resort-style feel. We approach each project with a deep respect for the site and the homeowner's vision, ensuring that the final design truly reflects their tastes and lifestyle. From selecting durable, stylish furnishings to specifying finishes that withstand the coastal climate, we create spaces as durable as they are beautiful.

Barbie and the Studio Palomino team are available to help you bring clarity and design insight to your project in Kohanaiki. We look forward to learning more about your home and your vision for the space.
