Nalo Road Bungalows -Construction Update /  by Justin Thain

This project is just off of world famous Brenecke’s Beach/ Poipu Beach Park, great views of the ocean, and an awesome little development called “Nalo Road Bungalows.” Each of the three homes were custom designed to have a very “easy beachy” feel with wide open lanai and classic plantation essence.

Classic Plantation Home | Kukui'ula Country Club | Architectural Visualization /  by Justin Thain

Having an architectural visualization created for our clients helps them see the project before it is completed. This classic plantation charmer features board and batten siding, large double hung windows, split-pitch room forms and classic "Hanalei Green" paint. This Pu’uwai Designed Home on the second fairway of the private Kukui'ula Country Club Course is sure to be a standout.

Thank you to Jeff Brink who created this architectural visualization for the project.
