At Lāhui Studio, we assemble ideas, people, and craft, creating architecture born from place and experience. Our practice is shaped by the places that raised us and the varied histories that define us, where culture, craft, and experience converge. We design spaces that sit lightly on the land yet resonate deeply with the people who inhabit them. Each project begins with observation and restraint, seeking beauty through precision, material honesty, and human connection. The conventional path to luxury often relies on rare materials and excess. We achieve refinement through local resources, careful detailing, and a disciplined design process. The result is work that is sustainable, distinctive, and timeless. Simple is not easy. It is our pursuit.

Lāhui Studio is an architecture practice shaped by the intersection of Los Angeles and Hawaiʻi. Its name reflects a Hawaiian understanding of community as a collective formed through shared identity, memory, and purpose—an outlook that informs the studio’s relationship with people and place. The team approaches architecture as a response to a site, listening to its land, buildings, climate, culture, and patterns of use before shaping a design.
Its work emphasizes honest form, careful craft, clear details, and materials such as wood, steel, and concrete used for their inherent qualities. Lāhui Studio also treats constraints, including budget, code, and conventional building systems, as opportunities to make thoughtful decisions and achieve durable, efficient results. Designs prioritize how people move through, inhabit, and remember a space, with attention to light, air, flexibility, and long-term use.
Led by partners George Racomura, Caven Raco, and Sarah Kott-Tannenbaum, the studio collaborates with clients to create architecture grounded in genuine connection and authentic to its surroundings
