The Kona coast, with its sun-drenched shores and sweeping views, provides a spectacular canvas for home design. At Studio Palomino, we sincerely appreciate the diverse character of this area. Our work here on the Big Island is a conversation between the home and the landscape, guided by a belief that great design should feel warm, personal, and connected to its surroundings. Whether you're building a new home, renovating a long-time residence, or furnishing a new space, we are here to help you navigate the process with clarity and creativity.
The homes in Kona vary as much as the landscape itself. You'll find everything from modern, lava-adjacent new builds with clean lines to traditional, charming plantation-style homes and sprawling family retreats. This variety means that each project requires a unique approach. Our design process is rooted in listening and observing, allowing us to understand your space's specific needs and lifestyle. We focus on integrating materials that feel right for the climate and culture of Hawai‘i, whether it's the rich grain of local wood, the texture of natural stone, or the subtle variations of a carefully chosen fabric. We aim to create comfortable and effortless spaces, reflecting how you live in them.
For many, a home in Kona is more than just a place to live—it's a sanctuary, a family gathering spot, or a personal retreat. Our approach is to create interiors that look beautiful and feel good to be in. We work closely with you to understand your vision, transforming vague ideas into tangible, livable spaces.
We would be delighted to connect if you are considering a project in Kona and want to discuss your home.
