For 18 months, I lived on this remote job-site with the owner of Laidlaw Building & Development. We partnered up to manage the ground-up construction of the cliff-side luxury home pictured here.

A long-time dream of private clients on the Hawaiian island of Kauai, this unique high-end home was built following Hurricane Iniki. We were hands-on with all the custom woodworking including those intricate ceilings, and exterior siding + stone work.

The design (somewhat eccentric) was meticulously envisioned by the owners. They aimed to capture many views, bring in a lot of light, and incorporate the natural elements. They wanted the home to blend in with the surrounding island landscape and gracefully age (and wood silver) over time.
