Your Hawaii residence should be a sanctuary, not a project. Yet many find themselves coordinating contractors across time zones, deliberating over finishes during business hours, and questioning why island construction commands premium investment.
Archipelago Home was founded on a singular principle: discerning clients deserve a partner who understands both exceptional design and Hawaiian logistics. Where others see complexity, we see our domain of expertise.
Archipelago Home represents the culmination of founder Tiare Pinto's 35-year mastery of Hawaiian residential design. What began as TCB Island Interiors evolved through Slipcovers etc. and Designs By Tiare, each venture deepening her expertise in island living.
In 2007, Tiare unified her practice with Studio Becker, forming Archipelago Hawaii—a full-service atelier collaborating with Hawaii's finest architects, engineers, and craftsmen to create exceptional residences from foundation to furnishing.
Today, Archipelago Home channels three and a half decades of intimate knowledge into every project. We've cultivated relationships with the island's premier artisans, mastered climate-specific materials, and refined the complexities of Hawaiian construction into seamless execution.
Whether reimagining an existing estate or commissioning a ground-up residence, you define the vision—we orchestrate every detail. From architectural collaboration through the final placement of curated art and commissioned linens, Archipelago Home transforms your concept into a fully realized island sanctuary.
The distinction between competent design and exceptional execution lies in intimate knowledge of place. Hawaii's unique logistics, extended maritime shipping, specialized permitting, climate-specific materials, demand expertise that transcends aesthetic vision.
