PROJECT

Kohanaiki Residence

Kona, Hawai'i

Tantalus Studio was hired by the clients alongside architect/builder Aina Ola to create a home for their large extended family to spend relaxing and enjoying the ocean in Kona. Custom millwork of wire brushed teak with subtle woven wallcovering elements were paired with brushed coral stone walls, custom stained cedar ceilings, and teak floors to create a warm, elevated backdrop for the curated furniture and art collection.  Key dramatic pieces are featured in each room, such as the graphic monstera print sofa in the living room and the kitchen island clad in a smokey blue quartzite slab.  The artwork collected curated by the client and Tantalus Studio celebrates the client’s love for the ocean and Hawaii without feeling contrived.  The result of this collaboration is a home that is vibrant yet sophisticated, and ready to be lovingly cherished by generations.
